**DUE TO COVID 19 AND THE RESTRICTIONS PLACE ON US BY THE STATE, ALL OF OUR SPORTS SEASONS WILL BE STARTING LATER IN THE YEAR AND WILL HAVE SHORTENED SEASONS.** 

A TENTATIVE NMAA SPORTS SCHEDULE CAN BE ACCESSED FROM THE PDF AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE.

"Sport is an ideal activity for developing young people. Through sport, athletes can learn respect, perseverance and teamwork. They build self-esteem, confidence and social skills. Every athlete can thrive when we foster a sport culture of respect and safety, on and off the field of play.

Research shows that athletes have better mental health, higher graduation rates and more productive social relationships."

The major goal of an interscholastic athletic program is the same as for any other educational program—to provide youth with the opportunity to develop to their maximum potential. It should be noted that participation in athletic activities is a PRIVILEGE offered to and earned by students.  Students must meet high academic standards in order to be eligible to tryout and stay on teams throughout the season.  **A GPA of 2.5 with no F's is required of all CCPS athletes.** This is a change from our past requirements, and is in line with changes made by the NMAA. 

 

High School         

CCPS is a member of the New Mexico Activities Association and is currently classified as a 3A school as a member of District 6.  For the 2020-21 school year CCPS is competing in the following varsity sports: boys and girls cross country, girls volleyball, boys and girls basketball, boys and girls swimming, boys and girls golf, and boys and girls track & field. Students in grades 8-12 are eligible to participate in those sports. Additionally, our high school students can participate in intramural water polo and coed soccer which competes in the Albuquerque Charter School League.

 

Middle School

***DUE TO COVID 19, THE ACSL HAS SUSPENDED ALL PRACTICES AND ATHLETIC COMPETITIONS UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE.***

We also have middle school programs for students in grades 6-8 in boys and girls cross country, boys and girls basketball, track and field, and girls volleyball that compete in the Albuquerque Charter School League.

Physical and Concussion Course Information

All student athletes must receive a physical prior to athletic participation.  A physical form, signed by the performing physician, must be submitted to the school before a student is declared eligible.  The form below is an example, but physicians may supply their own form as well.  The physical must be dated April 1, 2020 or later and are only valid until the end of the school year. 

Additionally, all student athletes must complete the NFHS Student Concussion Course prior to attending or participating in any athletic practices or game play, this an annual expectation for all of our student athletes.  And is a state law, for all NMAA participants which cannot be bypassed in any way. The following is the website where students can access the course, they must sign in and create a new account in order to complete the course.  Once they have done so, they can either print the certificate or email it to the athletic department.
