There will be two ,mandatory pre-season Meetings for all three seasons of Penn Yan Academy and Penn Yan Middle School athletes and their parents/guardians this year:
Wednesday, Aug. 4 at Penn Yan Academy Gymnasium from 6:30 to7:30 p.m.
All Varsity and JV teams for fall, winter and spring seasons — athletes and parents/guardians. Please bring a pen.
Wednesday, Aug. 25 at Penn Yan Middle School Auditorium — 6:30 to 7:30 p.m.
All Modified teams for fall, winter and spring seasons — athletes and parents/guardians. Please bring a pen.
It is expected that all fall, winter and spring season athletes and their parents/guardians attend. Code of Conduct/Parent Permission Slips will be distributed, followed by an explanation of the newly revised Penn Yan Central School athletic training rules and policies by Athletic Director Tobin Tansey.
Only fall teams will meet with their coaches for questions and information. Winter and spring teams will meet with their coaches just before the start of their seasons.
Signed Code of Conduct/Parent Permission Slips must be handed in to their Coach on the first day of practice, or students will not be allowed to try-out, practice, or participate in any way.
All fall season athletes must have a sports physical examination done either by the school doctor or by their own doctor within the last twelve months.
If examined by their own doctor, the form mustbe turned in to the PYA School Nurse by Aug. 1 (Varsity and JV teams) or by Aug. 13 (modified teams).
If an athlete needs to have a physical done by the school doctor and has not been scheduled by the school, they must contact the PYA School Nurse immediately.
Winter and Spring athletes will be scheduled after the start of the school year.
Please note that summer visitors to Penn Yan Academy must use the Court Street entrance to get to the Nurse’s Office, Main Office, and Guidance Office due to renovations at PYA. The Athletics Office is not accessible since no one is allowed to walk through the other hallways in the building.
The first day of fall practice for all varsity & JV teams is Monday, Aug.16.
Modified football practice starts on Saturday, Aug. 28.
All other modified teams begin practice on Tuesday, Sept. 1.
