Practice Dress Out Information and Shirt Purchase Link

Our athletes are required to wear a Decatur ‘D’, numbered shirt, black athletic shorts, and athletic shoes.

We have partnered with Ink’N’Stitch to purchase Decatur ‘D’ shirts from an online store. Wearing the Decatur ‘D’ shirt is mandatory for practice but you don’t have to purchase from the online store. This is just a convenient way to get your shirt(s). There are lots of people that make t-shirts so the choice is yours. If someone other than Ink-N-Stich makes your shirt(s) please contact lisa.dyer@decaturisd.us to get an assigned number to put on your shirt. We are trying our best to prevent duplicate numbers. We suggest having more than 1 to prevent having to do laundry every night. If you are an 8th grader and have shirts from last year please wear them!

Items Athletes Need to Bring

  1. Decatur Shirt - a royal blue, numbered, Decatur shirt needs to be worn daily. We are partnering with Ink 'N Stitch so parents can purchase as many shirts as they would like with the option of personalizing with last names on the back of the shirt. Their numbered shirts must be worn during tryouts. 

  2. BLACK Shorts - must be appropriate length for diving, bending, stretching, etc. NO spandex or bike shorts for practice. Volleyball players must provide their own spandex shorts for volleyball games.

  3. Water Bottle - athletes need to bring a water bottle full of water to practice each day. It needs to be a container that is labeled with their name to prevent any mix ups.  We suggest 32oz or larger that will NOT spill if knocked over.

  4. Knee Pads - optional but suggested - for those trying out for VB/BB or that make a team.

  5. Hygiene Items - towel, deodorant, hand sanitizer, body spray, brush, etc to keep in their athletic locker

  6. Athletic Bag 

Sports You

Athletes as well as parents need to download the SportsYou app! We will communicate with athletes and parents through this app. This is much more versatile than Remind 101 and very user friendly. In addition, we write information on our athletic white board, calendar, send emails, give hard copies, and give the kids daily reminders about upcoming events, departure times for games, picture days, and many other things.

Letter From the Coaches

Girls Athletics Important Information and Expectations  

Dear Parents and Athletes:

We are anticipating this year as being another successful year at MMS with many accomplishments and goals being achieved. I hope you find this packet of procedures and information helpful in making decisions and knowing what to expect next year during athletics.

In accordance with UIL rules, all 7th and 8th grade athletes must have a complete physical performed by a licensed medical physician each year that they participate in athletics. The forms and physical packets are available at the top of this page under "Physical Form" and "Rank One" links. 

Your athlete must submit a physical and all completed forms prior to the first day of school in order to begin participation. XC begins as does Volleyball try-outs on the second day of school(August 15th), so all participants must have this step complete. 

If you have any questions or concerns please call the girls coaches office at the Multi-Purpose Building. Our phone numbers are 393-7395 or 393-7396.

We look forward to soaring high next year!

Sincerely,

MMS Girls' Coaching Staff
