Timeline and Order of Team Selection:
https://forms.gle/DgGBVKhF6BjwPwQR8
1. All interested partners, even those who were team members last year, must complete this form by Monday February 24, 2025. If you do not complete this application for participation as a team member, you WILL NOT be eligible for selection as a partner.
CAVEAT: Upperclass students will receive preference for participation based on them having limited opportunities to participate as their high school careers progress. This does not guarantee all upperclass students who apply will be selected, but one's graduation year in school will play a factor in selection.
2. Our committee of coaches, teachers, and paraprofessionals will meet to formalize and select the group of partners. All individuals, namely those selected for the team and those who were not selected, will be notified via email no later than Friday March 7, 2025 regarding their status on the team.
3. Those partners who were selected, and their families, will then receive an email invitation with a link to register and pay for participation via Family ID. This will be due no later than Friday March 21, 2025.@12 pm
This includes: 1) Registration via Family ID, 2) Completion of mandated courses via Natick Athletics, and 3) Participation Fee.
4. Practice begins on Monday March 24, 2025 (weather permitting) at the NHS Memorial Field Track and Field Complex.
Please reach out to Coach DiAntonio (ndiantonio@natickps.org) or Coach Harris (eharris@natickps.org) with any questions or concerns!

First Day 2025 Spring Athletics Start Dates have been released by the MIAA. All Spring Sports can begin on Monday March 17, 2025. These dates are the earliest date that Spring sports can begin. As our coaches and teams narrow down specific first day details for the upcoming Spring sports activities, we will be sure to communicate these details in a multitude of ways and offer opportunities for families to meet with and ask questions of the athletic department staff.
There will be more to come in the coming weeks on specific first day practice details for our Natick HS Teams including sites and times.
To register - Please log in to Family ID. Registration will be completely online*. Please upload your child's medical physical** in FamilyID and make payments online at UniPay (Natick Public Schools) . The athletic fee is $225.00. Or drop a check off at the NHS Athletics Office.
** Your child's physical must be within 13 months. If you need a new physical and cannot get an appointment with your child's physician, you may need to consider going to an Urgent Care or Minute Clinic OR have your doctor write a note stating the date of your child's upcoming physical and that your child is "healthy and able to participate in sports". A current physical or doctor's note is necessary to participate in sports.
If you are a potential Spring athlete, thank you for your prompt attention to the details of this email.

Mandatory online training for our athletes during registration
Student athletes must complete 2 Free NFHS (National Federation of High Schools) Courses before registering for a sport. This is required of MIAA schools and thus Natick HS Student Athletes. A multiple sport athlete only has to complete the courses one time during the academic year. If an athlete has already completed the course, the course completion certificate should already populate into the registration and/or the athlete should use their previous course completion certificate to proceed with the registration process. After completing a course, the athlete will earn a "completion of course certificate." This should be uploaded in the appropriate and designated area during registration. The two courses are linked in the registration at the bottom of the page.
