Athletics
Our philosophy of basketball focuses on an even mixture of athletics and academics, with emphasis put on teamwork and exemplary student citizenship both on and off the court.  With this in mind, here are some ground rules for tryouts.
  • Tryouts will be held in early November both during and after school.  All students will be provided an equal opportunity to showcase their skills and be evaluated by the coaching staff.  8th grade students who do not have 7th period athletics need to report to the gym immediately following school.  7th grade students who do not have 1st period athletics need to report to the gym before school.
  • All students need a pair of red (7th) or blue (8th) athletic shorts, gym shoes, and a white T-shirt with their last name clearly written on the front and back with permanent marker.
Students will be evaluated using two categories:
  1. Objectively:     The student will be required to exhibit fundamental basketball skills ranging from speed, agility,dribbling, shooting, and passing.  These will be measured and recorded using a point system.
  2. Subjectively:    The coaching staff will evaluate the students in areas such as hustle, academics, teamwork, leadership and citizenship.  These will also be measured in the form of points.

The total points from both the objective and subjective categories will be totaled and ranked.  The top 16 - 20 student/athletes from each grade will make up the Haggard Middle School Basketball Team.
