Winter Sports Eligibility & Expectations

To ensure a safe, successful, and academically responsible winter season, all student-athletes must meet the following expectations:

  • Students  may not participate in open gyms, workouts, or tryouts if they have a "D" or below in any current class.

  • All required athletic paperwork and a current physical must be submitted before participation.

  • Student-athletes must respect all facilities and  leave them better than they found them.

  • There is  zero tolerance for horseplay during open gyms, workouts, or tryouts. Violations may result in ineligibility.

  • Disciplinary Eligibility: Any ISS/OSS suspension dating back to  October 1 will make a student-athlete ineligible for winter sports.

  • Students may submit an  appeal form for suspension-related eligibility decisions only. Academic/grade eligibility decisions cannot be appealed.

We strongly encourage families to begin checking grades, completing the attached athletic paperwork, and reviewing physical expiration dates now so there are no delays when workouts, open gyms, and tryouts begin.

We are looking forward to another exciting winter season and appreciate the continued support of our student-athletes, families, coaches, and Charlotte Lab community.

As we prepare for the upcoming Winter Basketball Season, this is a reminder about our scheduled Charlotte Lab Basketball Open Gym sessions.
