	BIG TURNOUT FOR BIGGER, FASTER STRONGER CLINIC -- The Mohonasen Sports Boosters sponsored a "Bigger, Faster, Stronger Clinic" on Saturday, June 21 where approximately 200 students in grades 7-12 learned how to improve their athletic performance both on and off the playing fields. "Getting better on the playing field will require athletic discipline and a commitment to work out year-round," says Mohonasen Athletic Director Timothy McNamara. Students were shown how to systemically maximize their athletic potential and improve their overall fitness levels through careful attention to things like: rest and nutrition, year-round training, record keeping, sprint and agility training, endurance and flexibility training, as well as strength and skills training. Mohonasen coaches, who have also been training in the Bigger, Faster, Stronger program, will incorporate these techniques in all interscholastic sports programs this year.

	SPORTS PHYSICALS -- To play on a team, or even practice, students must -- by law -- have a sports physical on file with the school nurse. The physical must be dated after June 1st to cover students through June of the following year. The physical can be performed by a student's family doctor, but Mohonasen's health physical form for Grades 6-12 (also available from the school nurse and sent home with report cards) must be filled out. Students also have the option of having a free sports physical performed by the school physician. Students are asked to please sign up for school sponsored sports physical, in advance, in the nurse's office. Note: If more than 30 days have passed since the physical was performed, in order to participate on a school sports team, a Sports Health Update Form must be filled out, signed by a parent and turned in to the school nurse.
	SPORTS BOOSTERS -- Mohonasen parents support the athletic program through Sports Boosters. Check out this page for information on meetings, fundraisers, club officers and more.
