2020-2021 Registration is OPEN!

CLICK HERE to register your child to play sports at Northgate in 2020-2021. This is a mandatory process every year for all student-athletes. Other important details to note:

• We acknowledge that we do not yet know what the 2020-21 seasons will look like. NCS has announced their intention to plan the Fall season on July 20th. 
• Complete all necessary registration information online in SportsNet. You should do this as soon as possible - even before you have completed the athletic physical.
• Complete an athletic physical with your doctor- we will have more information on this requirement and any amendments allowed considering Covid-19 soon. 
• You and your doctor must complete this physical form and upload the doctor-signed forms in SportsNet.
• After completing the online registration and uploading the doctor signed physical forms in SportsNet, you will receive a confirmation email approving your child to tryout for sports.
• All student-athletes must register using SportsNet, upload their physical into SportsNet, and receive an email confirmation prior to trying out for sports. The registration process is 100% online and we do not accept paper copies of physicals.
• Questions? Problems? Email ballardb@mdusd.org for support.

Student Athletes currently participating in a Northgate sport must wait until the conclusion of their current sport season before participating in any tryouts for an upcoming season.  All students will still get the mandated 3 day tryout once their current sport is complete.

• Tryouts at Northgate generally take place the first week to two weeks of the official start of each season. 
• Student athletes are given the opportunity to have a minimum of 3 days during a tryout, but some sports, at the coaches discretion, may lengthen the tryouts dependent on number of athletes, available facilities and other related factors. 
• Student athletes must complete the registration process in order to be eligible to tryout for sports.
• Participating in sports at Northgate is a privilege, not a right and must be earned.  The tryout process for sports at Northgate is competitive and may force coaches to make roster selections (aka, cuts) for varsity, junior varsity, and freshman teams. 
• All sports teams that have tryouts provide each student athlete a fair and objective evaluation, minimum of three days and make the best decisions based on the tryout.  As much as we want everyone to participate in sports at Northgate, roster selections will be made and some student athletes may not make the sport they are trying out for.  Head Coaches will make every effort to explain to each student athlete why they did not make the team.  Final roster selections are program based and not negotiable.
