Happy Summer!!  For those interested in trying out for the Rifle Team this year, tryouts will be held on August 25, 26, and 29.  All tryout days are mandatory, and all students try out even if you were on the team in previous years.  Practices and tryouts are held at Tanana Valley Sportsmen's Association across from Fred Meyer West, on Mon, Tues, Thurs, and Fridays from 5:00-7:00 pm, with matches most every Saturday starting September 10.The season will end November 12 with MAC Regionals. No prior experience is necessary and all equipment will be provided.

This season the team will be cut to 12 students, you will need to show your best every time you are at the range.  Attitude, coachability, and enthusiasm matter more than skill during tryouts.   

There is a $25 tryout fee that covers ammo, targets, and gear rentals. This fee is non-refundable but will be credited towards the participation fee if you make the team.  Fees should be paid directly to the front office.  The participation fee for the 2022/23 season has not been determined yet but will be increased from previous years due to the drastic increased costs of materials and ammunition.  I highly encourage all students who make the team to get a sponsorship/donation letter from the front office to cover your participation fee and solicit donations from businesses and individuals, make sure their donation is designated for the rifle team or your fees.  Donations can also be made to cover team expenses or to upgrade/replace equipment. If you need help covering the fee please contact the front office.

Any athlete wishing to tryout must have all the required forms and sports physicals completed and uploaded to PlanetHS prior to participating in tryouts.  The website requires BOTH a student account and parent/guardian account so that forms can be electronically signed.  Students will not be allowed to participate until all forms are completed and tryouts will end August 29 and not be extended if you miss them.
