EMS Fall Sports News
Escalante Middle School is excited to offer Football and Volleyball to all 7th and 8th-grade students! With all the construction happening at EMS this summer, we won't be able to access the gym until later in August than we are used to. Keep checking the website for current information.
Fall sports are open to all 7th and 8th-grade students. To be eligible to participate, students need to complete the registration checklist linked below. For more information, click the Athletic Information Page below or contact Athletic Director Will Dodd at [email protected] or Tami in the office at [email protected]. Unfortunately, there is no one in the office to take phone calls until construction is completed. Appx 8/13/2024
Official Practice starts August 6th-8th. Practice will be from 5-8 pm at Durango High School. Athletes should enter the building through the front entrance. Athletic Director Mr. Dodd will help direct you to where practice will be. He will also be able to answer questions any parents may have about their athlete's registration status.
Volleyball practice the week of August 12th will be in Escalante's Gym from 2:00 - 5:30 PM. Athletes will need to bring their own water bottles and knee pads.
August 1st and 2nd is a Mini Camp that is not mandatory, but is highly encouraged to be there. It will be from 7 am-11 am each day.
Official practice starts on August 5th-8th from 7 am-11 am.
Again, to participate in any sport, athletes must complete all their registration items before being allowed to participate. This includes the district's online athletic registration (see link below), the athlete's physical (form provided by the Doctor), and payment of the athletic fee. No athlete can participate in the above-listed activities if they have not completed these tasks.
