ATHLETICS PHYSICALS AND OTHER UPDATES Athletic physicals are scheduled for Thursday, August 1, 2024, from 8:00 AM to 12:00 Noon at the Utopia Medical Clinic, 100 Brandon Street, Utopia, Texas 78884. The cost is $10. Please bring cash. All athletic forms, including physical forms can be picked up at the central office or the school office or can be downloaded at https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ovWHGPdfCrD4kOM--wTXavtf4VHFNVwe/view All forms must be completed and signed before participation in any practice before or after school. Turn forms into Mrs. Patti Meyer in the school office. Currently, the plan is to have Utopia ISD sixth-grade students included in the junior high athletic period for the 2024-2025 school year. This is being done because, with the low numbers of students in the incoming seventh and eighth grade, there is a high probability that the sixth-grade students may be able participate in some or all of the junior high sports. UIL regulations state that sixth grade students in 1A and 2A schools may participate in junior high sports if there are not enough seventh and eighth grade students on the first day of practice to form two complete teams in a team sport. For Utopia the first junior high girls’ team sport is volleyball, and the first junior high boys’ team sport is basketball. This means that sixth grade girls may participate in junior high volleyball if there are less than twelve seventh and eighth grade girls that come out for volleyball on the first day of practice, which is the first day of school. It also means that sixth grade boys may participate in junior high basketball if there are less than ten seventh and eighth grade boys that come out for basketball on the first day of practice, which is October 15, 2024. Once the sixth-grade girls or boys meet the qualification to participate in a team sport they may then participate in all other sports for that gender for the rest of the school year, including individual sports like cross country, tennis, and track and field. If you are the parent/guardian of a sixth-grade student it would be best to have him or her get a physical and complete all of the athletic paperwork in case they are able to participate in any of the junior high sports.
