Middle School Athletics

Our Middle School athletic program serves a critical role in the health and wellness of our  students’ present and future lives. Participation, teamwork, fair play, confidence building and skill development are all integral aspects of Middle School sports.

We encourage athletes to play for two or all three seasons, if they are interested, and we require students to participate in one of the three seasons in 6th-8th grade. Athletic participation is encouraged but not required for students in 5th grade.

Because AFS emphasizes engagement, skill development and team membership at the Middle School level, a wider percentage of students are able to reap the many benefits associated with athletic participation compared to more selective Middle School programs.

Robust student involvement does not preclude the pursuit of competitive success, as AFS Middle School teams take pride in playing their games the right way and playing to win. We look forward to having you join our team.
