To: Stevenson Fall Sport Participants Subject: Conflict with fall sports Stevenson High School Hockey Association, Inc. (SHSHA) P.O. Box 542 Lincolnshire, IL 60069 Although hockey is a winter sport, practices will begin immediately after tryouts, and the first league games begin before some Stevenson fall sports are over. According to State High School rules, students may participate in only one interscholastic sport at a time. For example, a student may not play on school teams for both soccer and football in the fall. Participation in the SHSHA hockey program is not a violation of the State sport rule. However, individual Stevenson team coaches may establish team rules that restrict participation in other athletic activities. Restrictions, if any, vary by coach. As a fall sport participant, we ask that you observe the following: 1. All activities associated with your fall sport come before hockey. Also, follow any participation restrictions given by your coaches. Violating fall sport rules will not help you or your hockey team. 2. With the time and energy commitments required of a fall sport, it is important to insure adequate time and energy are devoted to academics. Please do not hesitate to restrict your hockey involvement during the fall sports season for academic reasons. 3. Given 1 and 2 above, please make every effort to attend tryouts and try to participate in as much of the fall hockey program as you can. Communication is the key!!! It is your responsibility to keep your hockey coach fully informed of any hockey activities you will miss. We understand that you may feel that you will fall behind by missing hockey practices. Remember, the general physical conditioning provided by your fall sport, combined with some extra effort on your part, should help you catch up quickly after your fall sport ends. Please direct any questions to: Sheryl Graff, President SHSHA (847) 650-1820
