Brentwood Middle Athletic Offerings

Brentwood Middle has many athletic options for students. We categorize our sports by seasons.

Fall athletic teams begin practice during the summer months before school starts in most cases. The fall athletic seasons run from the start of school until late October or early November.
Winter athletic teams begin practice during the late fall. The winter athletic seasons run from approximately December through February.
Spring athletic teams begin practice in late February to early March. The spring athletic seasons run from March to early May.

A student may still tryout if they're already in season with another BMS sport, but cannot attend practices or open gyms for that sport until their current season has ended.
You must check the box for your student's sport in FinalForms online dashboard to receive information.
Physicals must be uploaded stating that the student has passed a physical examination, not prior to April 15, and is physically fit to participate in interscholastic athletics with a doctor's signature.
