Attention Grizzly Athletes!!

If you are interested in becoming a member of one of our Grizzly Athletic Teams please see the following information below! Our Athletic Teams compete against other schools in our Cluster as well as other schools in OCPS. There are a limited amount of Athletes that can make the team and each sport will use Tryout Platform to have Athletes perform drills, conditioning, scrimmages, and other activities to evaluate and compile a list of players who will represent Gotha Athletics! ALL Athletes MUST complete the Athletic Packet Sign-up Process by the deadlines listed in order to be eligible to tryout for a sport.

 

Athletic Packet Sign-Up:  Go to www.aktivate.com (Cannot use the APP) ALL Physicals and information is to be submitted electronically. 

1. ONLY upload Page 4 of 4 on the EL2 Form. No other form needs to be uploaded. You MUST have a Physician complete the Physical/Form and stamp their credentials in the box provided. All information MUST be filled out and Athlete and Parent MUST sign and date the bottom of the form. It will not be approved if this is not completed.

2. IMPORTANT- In order to tryout for a sport, the Sport has to be selected when you sign-up. If you are not sure,  then it is recommended to select all sports so that they will be eligible.

3. The deadline is listed below for each sport will be firm with NO exceptions. If you have any questions there is a tech support team on the Aktivate website as well to assist you with anything you might need.

4. If you already have an account because you have High School kids, then you can just use that account to add your Middle School students.

5. Please be sure that if you use a form that is not on our Gotha Website that it has the Revised Date of 04/24 under EL2. If you turn in one without this revised date it WILL NOT be accepted.

 

If you have any concerns or questions please contact the Athletic Director-Michelle Davis at [email protected]
