Lettering Requirements and Honor Roll Standards

LETTER AWARD POLICY

 

An athlete must earn 100 points in the following areas:  attendance, participation and performance. You MUST compete in 85% of meets, regardless of point totals, to letter. An athlete will be awarded points in the following manner:

Attendance

1 point for each practice attended

-5 points for any missed practice or meet

Excessive absences will result in missed meets.

You will be offered an opportunity to make up a missed practice to avoid

penalty

 

Participation

1 point for each meet JV or Varsity

Performance

1 point for each varsity point earned

1 point for each improved performance in a meet

(improvement is bettering your previous best meet time or distance

in an event)

25 points for equaling or breaking a Varsity Honor Roll Standard. Athletes who hit either the jv/varsity standard will receive a special t-shirt!

 

Excused/Unexcused absences: An excused absence would be a doctor/dental type appointment, a school related function, a church activity, illness or family emergency.  An unexcused absence would be another sport’s practice or game, job or any absence that has not been turned into prior to practice. Unexcused absences will result in an athlete being unable to participate in the following meet.

A combined total of points equaling 100 will earn a varsity letter. There are two exceptions:

  1. If an athlete is injured during the outdoor season and is unable to participate fully because of the injury, the coaching staff will decide objectively whether they felt the injured athlete would have reached the criteria had the injury not occurred. Any awards will be given accordingly.

 

  1. Any senior who did not achieve the 100 points but was a contributor to the team will be awarded a letter. A positive contributor is one who is hard-working, reliable, gives maximum effort and is a good role model for our athletes.
