Middle Academy Sports
Middle School Winter Sports Tryout Information
The information below gives the time, date and locations for each of the sports we field during the winter season. In order to try out, you must have a completed tryout packet and it should be turned in to Mrs. Moore (please double check and make sure all pages have been completed correctly). If you turned in a tryout packet for the Fall Sports season this year, please double check that your physical is up to date by emailing Coach Bowman. Expired physicals and pieces missing from the tryout packet will prevent you from being eligible to try out. Students will need to attend both days of tryouts and all paperwork will need to be turned in prior to the tryout date. If you are in need of a physical but your doctor can not schedule you before tryout dates we recommend you go to OrthoNC in Knightdale. They do walk in physicals for $10. If you need a tryout packet, they can be printed off of our website at ewaeagles.org. If you have any additional questions, please email Coach Bowman at bbowman@eastwakeacademy.org.
