HLPS Bears Athletics

🏐 VOLLEYBALL IS ALMOST HERE! 🏐

We are so excited to get the volleyball season underway in just a couple of weeks! As we get closer to tryouts, here are a few important reminders for all athletes:

1. Attend EVERY tryout. Athletes are expected to attend all scheduled tryouts. Attendance at tryouts will be considered as part of the team selection process.

2. Plan ahead for work! If a tryout or practice falls on a day you are scheduled to work, be sure to arrange time off ahead of time.

3. Come prepared! Bring appropriate indoor athletic footwear, workout clothes, and a water bottle to every tryout.

4. Have questions or concerns? Please reach out to Ms Connellan!

5. Keep an eye out for drop-in volleyball! A drop-in volleyball schedule will be posted for the week of August 31. This will be a great opportunity to get some touches in and get ready for tryouts.

We can’t wait to see everyone back in the gym! Let’s get ready for a great volleyball season! 🐻🏐

It’s that time of year again! Golfers, join Mr. Lanti for a round of golf on August 25th and 28th at 11 am 🐻⛳️

We had 9 athletes proudly represent HLPS at the Track and Field Provincials in Calgary. We are incredibly proud of their hard work, dedication, and commitment throughout the season. Congratulations on an outstanding achievement! 🏅🐻

We’re playing catch-up with our posts, but we wanted to congratulate everyone on an outstanding showing at the Zone Track and Field Championships. We are incredibly proud of the effort, determination, and positive energy our athletes brought to both the track and the field events.

A special congratulations to our senior athletes who earned spots at the Provincial Championships. Qualifying for provincials is a tremendous accomplishment and a testament to all of the hard work and dedication they put in throughout the season.

Thank you to all of our athletes, coaches, and supporters for making the season such a success. We are proud of each and every one of you! 🐻🏅

We wrapped up the school year with our annual beach volleyball tournament today. Thank you to everyone who participated and took advantage of the beautiful weather. It was great to see so much enthusiasm, teamwork, and school spirit on display throughout the day.

A special congratulations goes out to The Goats, who finished with a perfect 3–0 record to capture the championship title. Congratulations as well to Triple T for earning a well-deserved second-place finish.

Have a safe and relaxing summer, and we look forward to seeing everyone back next year! ☀️🐻🏐

On Tuesday, we celebrated our athletes and teams at our annual Athletics Banquet. We are incredibly proud of our student-athletes and all they accomplished this year, both on and off the court, field, and track. Their hard work, dedication, sportsmanship, and school spirit made this a memorable season for Bears Athletics.

We also want to extend a huge thank you to our coaches and staff supervisors who gave up countless hours of their time to support, mentor, and help build our athletics program. Your commitment to our students does not go unnoticed, and we are so grateful for everything you do.

Thank you to parents, caregivers, families, and friends for supporting our athletes and giving countless hours to ensure they attend practices and games. Our teams couldn’t do this without you!
