2026 Spring Tryout/Practice Information

 

 

Spring sports are right around the corner, and we are looking forward to a great season! 

Here is a checklist from the Athletic Office that might be helpful for you to ensure your athlete is ready for tryouts on March 9.  Please feel free to reach out to our Athletic Director, Tom Bouma, at tbouma@gccsmi.org or Linda Eisma, at leisma@gccsmi.org if you have any questions.

 

Athlete Checklist!

 

• Get a Physical:  Your physical must be dated after April 15, 2025, and turned into the Athletic Office before your athlete’s tryout on March 9, or they will not be able to participate on that day.  Both sides of the physical form must be completed including all signatures before the physical will be accepted. You may turn in the physical to the Main Office, Athletic Office or scan the physical to Linda Eisma at leisma@gccsmi.org.  

 

• Pay your $100 “Pay to Participate” Fee to the Business Office. This fee can be paid in person in the Business Office or online at gosquires.org (Look under Parent Resources)  Link to Pay to Participate  

 

• Complete the Consent to Treat Form, Concussion Awareness Form and the Transportation Permission Form for Athletics.  These forms must be turned into the Athletic Office before tryouts on March 9.  Each of these forms will be valid for the remaining years your athlete is at Calvin Christian – you only need to complete them once.  If the driving status of your child changes, it is the parent’s responsibility to update the Transportation Permission Form.
