FINGER LAKE ELEMENTARY BASKETBALL
Fall 2020
What to know
The Finger Lake Elementary Basketball Program will begin Monday, October 12, 2020 and continue through November 14, 2020. The program is open for all interested 4th and 5th grade athletes. The Mat-Su District activity fee for elementary sports is $30.00 and this must be paid before your athlete can participate. Students may also purchase a Finger Lake athletic T-shirt for $15.00. Parents can now pay by credit card or e-check through “School Cash Online” on the Finger Lake website! https://www.matsuk12.us/fle
Participants will learn general knowledge and specific skills in practice and intra-squad scrimmages. There is a limit of 20 players per team. All 5th graders will be on the team and the remaining slots will go to a random draw of 4th graders. This was not an issue last year, so please sign up! Assume that your child is on the team unless you are notified otherwise. All parents will be notified by 10/11. Practices and scrimmages will end at 5:00pm with parents responsible for transportation. We ask for your cooperation regarding prompt pickup of your child.
The Mat-Su Borough School District’s insurance does not cover students participating in afterschool activities. Insurance administered by Myers, Stevens, and Toohey is available if you wish to purchase insurance for your child. Forms are available in the front office at Finger Lake Elementary.
As the parent or guardian, please understand it is your responsibility to log into School Dismissal Manager (SDM) and create an exception stating that your child is participating in an afterschool activity. Please be aware, if an exception has not been created for a particular day, the office will follow the default pick-up procedure in SDM.
