Gemini Middle School

Empowering all students to succeed in a changing world

Gemini Middle School offers a full range of athletic programs for all eligible 6th, 7th, and 8th-grade students. Each season runs roughly 6-8 weeks and allows students to participate in a variety of athletic teams. The sports that we offer are cross country, girl's volleyball, soccer in the fall. Boy's and girl's basketball, cheerleading, and wrestling are winter sports. Boys volleyball, girls softball, and track and field are held in the spring. The staff at Gemini Middle School believe that athletics offers additional avenues for students to connect with the school site and to be part of our exceptional athletic community.

Our sports program enhances the student's experience at Gemini by fostering positive relationships with peers and staff while learning the lifelong skills of commitment, dedication, and teamwork. We encourage all students to increase physical activity and exercise and our athletic program is the basis of that philosophy. Together with coaches, players, and families, participation in athletics greatly adds to the character of the student and aids in developing successful young men and women.

What is needed (for all teams) - A valid physical form or the IHSA/IESA Pre-Participation Exam Form (sports physical) must be turned into the nurse's office before a child can try out for a sport. These forms are good for one year.

Parents/guardians provide signatures on the Agreement to Participate form and acknowledge receipt of the Concussion Information Sheet during online registration at the beginning of the school year. Students will acknowledge receipt of the Concussion Information Sheet during PE class but will need to sign the Agreement to Participate Form at the tryout.

A t-shirt, shorts, and gym shoes must be worn to practice.
