Harrison Middle School
Fall Sports 2020
 
The Maine Principals’ Association (MPA) approved the start of high school Fall Sports beginning September 14, 2020. Participation and Competition Guidelines were created by the MPA that align with guidelines from the Maine CDC, Maine Department of Economic and Community Development, Department of Health and Human Services, Maine Department of Education, and the Governor’s Office. Yarmouth Athletics will provide HMS students the opportunity to participate in Fall Sports programs that will follow those guidelines as well.

Fall Sports Information

HMS Fall Sports will begin on Thursday, October 1, 2020. 
Team practices will focus on conditioning, skill development, and intrasquad competition. There will be no games played vs opponents outside HMS.
There will be a virtual meeting held for athletes and parents by the coach of each team on Wednesday, September 30, 2020. Specific details and links to those meetings will be provided on Tuesday, September 29, 2020.
The Yarmouth Athletic Department will be using an Activity Registration Program through rSchoolToday to register students for participation in any sport offered during the 2020-2021 school year.  This program will replace the process used to register for sports via the PowerSchool Parent Portal. Any student who wants to participate in HMS athletics must complete the registration process. Parents should register their students by Wednesday, September 30, 2020. Support for Activity Registration will be available. Contact Sarah Holmes at 207-846-2329 or by email at sarah_holmes@yarmouthschools.org.
