2. Evaluations will take place September 25^ththrough September 29^th 4:30 pm – 5:30 pm. ALL swimmers (except high school swimmers) will need to undergo an evaluation, this will also provide time for Taylor to meet all of the swimmers.

Taylor Keen Head Swim Coach Introduction

From Gaye –

If anyone has students who will be  13 years old through senior grade who are interested in learning tennis and possibly being a part of a homeschool tennis team, please contact Gaye McNair sgmcnair@gmail.com to sign up.  Floyd Washburn, a long time CBC member, is on the local board of Public Tennis, Inc and a USTA member will help us arrange lessons and get this ball bouncing!  If enough people contact me we will look at starting some lessons this summer, probably one day a week for 6 weeks. This would be a great way to introduce your kids to this “life” sport while adding hours towards the required PE credit. Fee for lessons $10 a session (Each additional brother or sister is only $5) and that’s a really good deal! Lessons would be held in the Mossy Oaks area.
Don’t put it off…we need to know interest level.  Thanks!!!

Lots of choices for swimmers this season! YMCA Tigersharks

Beaufort County School Sports Information  scroll down to charter/homeschool links…..

Homeschooled, charter and Governor School students may participate in extracurricular activities in their school district. Not every student will want to take advantage of this program, but we are grateful that homeschooled students now have this opportunity. Many CBCCA students participated last year and had a great experience. We hope that our homeschooled students will be both a blessing and an asset to the local schools’ athletic programs.

Football, swimming, volleyball, competitive cheerleading, girls tennis, girls golf and cross country usually have a first practice date in August.  According to the Homeschool Eligibility Request Process you need to submit your request to the district Request(s) received at the District Educational Service Center from the parent/guardian ten (10) days prior to tryouts/practice of a requested sport. Application serves as notice of a student’s intent to participate. The district is requiring that this information is turned in (10) ten days before the first practice in order to confirm each student’s eligibility.

Contact the school that you wish to participate in to get dates and details on the season. Below are the tentative start dates to get you started.
