The Western Middle School's Fall Sports Registration form is now open for incoming 6th grade and returning 7th and 8th grade participants.  Fall sports include BOYS SOCCER, GIRLS SOCCER, FIELD HOCKEY, and CO-ED VOLLEYBALL.  The Fall schedules will be posted on the Western website under athletics in September. Tryouts will be held September 9th, 10th and 12th.

If your student athlete is interested in trying out for Boys Soccer, Girls Soccer, Field Hockey or Co-Ed Volleyball this fall, please log into Final Forms and register. 

Registration Deadline: September 6, 2024. No registrations will be accepted after this date. 

Even if you have previously registered for Final Forms, you must go in and choose a Fall sport and make sure that your child's physical forms are updated prior to the September 6th deadline. All students who wish to try out MUST upload a current physical when registering. The only form accepted is the CT-HAR.   Make sure that you are in "Green" status. If you are not "Green" this means that you are missing something and will not be eligible for tryouts. 

For those who are new to Final Forms, click on the Parent Playbook for directions on how to register in FinalForms.This guide will walk you through each step, making it easy to register your student-athlete for winter sports.  If you require any support during the process, scroll to the page bottom in FinalForms and click “Use Support.”

Please take a moment to review the guide. A parent or legal guardian must create an account first and then add your children. When adding your children, you must use their Greenwich Public School email. Once this is done and verified, and a sport is selected, then both parent and student must log in to fill and sign their document. If you have any questions or encounter issues during the registration process, there is a “What can we help you with?” drop-down at the bottom of the page.

We encourage you to complete the sports registration as soon as possible to ensure your student-athlete’s participation in the upcoming season. Please remember that you can only try out for one sport per season. 

If you have any questions regarding registration, please email  sportsphysicalwms@greenwich.k12.ct.us

FinalForms

The GPS Athletic Department has partnered with FinalForms, an online forms and data management service, to manage athletic participation.  All new and returning student-athletes must register with a parent/guardian through FinalForms prior to tryouts or participation.

Click on the Parent Playbook for directions on how to register in FinalForms. If you require any support during the process, scroll to the page bottom in FinalForms and click “Use Support”.

Initial registration will take 15-20 minutes. Registering returning athletes can be completed in 5-10 minutes as FinalForms saves data season-to-season and year-to-year. Parents should have information for physician, dentist, emergency contacts, insurance (if applicable), and a current State of CT Health Assessment Record (HAR) form ready for the registration process.  The HAR can be found on GPS Health Forms and Immunizations.

Please register early, as it will take 24-48 hours for the Health Office to process your registration. You may only register for one sport each season.  There is no cost to register.

About the CT HAR FORM:

A student athlete must have a current State of CT Health Assessment Record (HAR) form on file with the Western Middle School Health Office prior to participation.  For sports participation, this form is good for 13 months and must be valid at the time of tryouts and throughout the season. We are no longer using the separate Sports Physical form.

If you are unsure whether your CT-HAR is still current email the Health Office. 

One of the main objectives of the Middle School Intramurals is to provide every student with the opportunity to play and enjoy friendly activity under the supervision of certified staff. While the main focus is recreational, participants may practice game skills learned in physical education class. Activities which are not offered in regular physical education class are also available. These offerings run for approximately 8 weeks as interest and participation dictate. All equipment is provided for the students and there is no cost to participate.

After School Intramural Sports are typically offered Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday.
Starting Time: 3:00pm until 4:00pm (late bus available on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday only)
(Students must be in the gym by 3:00 pm, and arrive with a pass if coming after 2:45 pm.)

Any student is eligible to participate: no tryouts or forms needed!
Transportation is provided through Western's late buses.

Flag football, Basketball, and fitness room will be offered daily!
