Athletics
Please Note: For away games a one-way bus will transport the Athletic Team to the school where the game is being held. Parents/Guardians will need to pick up their student from that location after the event.
Proposing a New Sport
In SCUSD, we’re always excited to explore new athletic opportunities that enhance our student experience and promote school spirit, teamwork, and wellness. Community members, students, and families who are interested in starting a new sport on our campus, whether it be a club or CIF sport, should follow the steps below to ensure the proposal aligns with district guidelines, CIF regulations, and available resources.
Steps to Propose a New Sport
-
Contact your school's Vice Principal overseeing Athletics and schedule a time to meet and discuss your idea.
-
A minimum number of students expressing consistent interest is required to consider forming a team. Please include a list of interested students (grades and contact information) as part of your proposal, as well as other sports that might be impacted by the creation of a new sport or club on campus.
Important Notes
- Not all proposed sports can be immediately implemented due to facility, budget, or staffing constraints.
-
Community partnerships, booster support, and sustainable student interest are key factors in approval.
