Calling all middle school runners, throwers and jumpers - now is the time to sign up for the 2020-2021 track season! Registration is now open for the 2020-2021 Track and Field season. Every year, our track team typically draws more athletes than any of our other teams - encourage your middle schooler to join the fun! Practice times are to be determined pending information from the district regarding school schedules with hybrid/In-person learning for middle school students. The athletics department is inquiring at other schools to see if we may be able to practice on a track a few times this season, if it works out, we will provide bus transportation to and from the practice destination. This season is going to look different than any season we have had before given the current guidelines provided by the Oregon School Activities Association. New information and changes occur daily, we must be flexible and follow all health and safety protocols at all times. The season runs from February 22nd to April 2nd. In order to join the team and be ready for the first day of practice on February 22nd, 3 things are necessary -- all 3 must be complete in order to participate:
1) Register on Family ID
2) Pay the $20 fee on TouchBase.
3) A current sports physical must be on file in the school office.
- 6th & 7th graders need a new physical each year (if you already turned one in for a previous sport this year, you're good to go)
- 8th graders only need a new physical if they did NOT turn one in as a 7th grader
- If you're not sure if you have turned one in this year, call Tommy Niebergall at 541-355-3049 or email: [email protected]
Snow or no snow, it's going to be a great season and Coach Cammie and our great group of assistant coaches are determined to do everything in their power to make this season a success. If you have questions send an email or call our athletic department. There will be weekly newsletters pushed out by the athletics department to keep you informed about new and updated information.

Three Rivers Middle School Athletics
Students will find a connection to athletic activities at Three Rivers. We want students to enjoy these sporting opportunities - to be part of a team, to work hard together with their teammates, to learn skills associated with particular sports, and to cultivate good sportsmanship. Many will continue on with these interests into high school. We encourage parents to actively support their children in both their academic and athletic pursuits.
- Register through Family ID ONLINE. This is the only way to register. Registration will open August 6th.
- Pay the Pay to Play fee ($20) ONLINE using your student's account on TouchBase. Or you may stop by the school and pay with cash, check or credit card. If you are interested in a scholarship (covering up to $30 of the fee), please stop by the school office for an application.
- Sports physicals - all 6th and 7th grade students need a current sports physical (dated May of the previous year or later). 8th graders only need one if they did NOT get one as a 7th grader. Be sure to bring a copy to the school office. Sports physical form

Sports Physicals
Sports physicals are required for athletes competing in 6th grade athletics. Students who continue to participate in extracurricular sports after 6th grade must complete a physical exam in grades 7, 9, and 11 or if this is their first time participating with a Bend-La Pine Schools team. All physicals need to be completed prior to the sports season and not before May 1st of the summer before the current academic year. Please be sure to print out the OSAA School Sports Pre-Participation Examination form and take it to your child's sports physical appointment:
When you have completed the sports physical, be sure to turn it in to the school.
Middle School Athletic Philosophy
We believe that athletic participation provides a unique opportunity to fulfill many of the personal, social and physical needs common to middle school youth. Participation in appropriate competitive athletics increases one's sense of personal worth, self-discipline, respect and fair play, which can carry over into daily problem solving through life.
Coaches, teachers and parents have a shared responsibility to help guide, nurture and support our youth in developing the confidence and ability to make good choices both on and off the playing fields.
Through dedication, effort and practice, our youth will develop athletic skills and attitudes that will contribute to personal success, as well as team accomplishments. Our goal is to develop lifelong learners who enjoy and participate in a variety of healthy activities.
Central Oregon Middle School Athletic Policies
Middle schools in the Bend-La Pine School District compete with other middle schools in the Central Oregon areas. All Central Oregon middle schools use the guidelines outlined by the C.O. Middle School Standard Operating Procedures for Athletics. These procedures are available in the school office.
Code of Conduct
Any student who participates in school-sponsored athletics or activities must agree to abide by the School District Board Policies, Administrative Rules, Code of Conduct, building rules, and team participation/training contracts. All students who participate in athletics and extracurricular activities are expected to be positive role models for other students and members of the community. Students should demonstrate good conduct at school and in the community at all times.
