Welcome to the North Middle School Athletics, home of the Jr. Huskies! North is a member of the Kalamazoo-Portage-Mattawan League. This league offers competition in Cross Country, Football, Girls Basketball, Boys Basketball, Wrestling, Girls Volleyball, and Track and Field. Through interscholastic competition, students are expected to learn and demonstrate appropriate behavior and sportsmanship while maintaining a good academic standing. Rules and expectations for our student athletes can be found in the Middle School Athletic Handbook.

All students must have a current physical on file in the office before they can participate in athletics. The physical must be dated on or after April 15, 2009. The following sports require a physical: Football, Basketball, Volleyball, Cross Country, Wrestling, Swimming, Diving and Track. The 2009/2010 physical form can be found on the NMS athletic website.

Since some fall practices begin prior to the first day of school, students may bring their 2009/2010 physical form to their coach on the first day of practice.

I hope that you find the information on this website helpful. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.
