Registration for Fall Sports is open!!! Please use the link below to register your son or daughter. After the first day, we will not be able to accept any more student-athletes.
For those parents who have already registered on Final Forms. Please make sure you have a current physical on file and that all forms are signed off. Once all your forms are “green” and an updated physical is on file with the nurse, your student-athlete will be eligible to try out. If you have already submitted a physical to the health office, the FinalForms account will be updated within the next week. Thank you for your patience.

If you are new to FinalForms, please use the link below to the Parent Handbook for instructions on creating an account if you don't have one already. Any questions, please reach out to the Athletic Office for assistance.
An updated physical must be on file with the health office, and all required paperwork must be completed in Final Forms.
- First Day of Tryouts: Wednesday, September 9th, immediately after school
- Tryouts: September 9th and September 10th
- Typical Practice Times: 2:45 p.m. – 4:15 p.m.
- Once teams are finalized, there will typically be 1–2 contests per week in addition to 1-2 practices per week. Head coaches will share specific schedules with parents. Typically, our Polson teams will be Monday through Thursday with occasional Fridays (weather makeups, extra practice). We will not have weekend commitments.
If your son or daughter is also involved in youth or travel programs this fall, Polson Athletics is the priority. This ensures all students have the opportunity to participate in some type of sport in the fall. In recent years, we have faced challenges with fielding full teams on some days after team selections were made due to conflicts.
Any student-athlete who does not make a Polson team will be provided information about joining a youth program in town. While we would love to keep everyone on our school teams, it is not always logistically possible. We encourage families to have a conversation at home before tryouts to help set expectations.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact the Athletic Office via email or phone. We are happy to assist.

Registration
To participate in Polson Athletics, all student-athletes must complete the following steps via FinalForms:
- Incoming 6th Graders will have accounts set up for them. An email will be sent with login information.
- Register Online: Visit Madison-CT FinalForms to sign all required participation forms.
- Current Physical: A valid physical exam (conducted within the last 13 months) must be on file with the school nurse. Please email to the school nurse, upload on FinalForms, or drop off at the main office.
- Most of our teams will have tryouts, and unfortunately, we will not be able to keep every student-athlete. We ask that, if you commit to a Polson team, it be your first priority during the season, so all of our student-athletes can have a great experience.
