Good Morning, Conklin Families!

We are gearing up for what promises to be an exciting year of athletics for our Conklin Cubs and Bears! Over the next few weeks, I will be sharing a registration link for our upcoming summer and fall sports programs.

We're also excited to announce that Conklin Athletics is transitioning to Snap! Mobile a new, user-friendly platform that will make it easier for families to stay informed about schedules, team updates, announcements, and more. (Be on the lookout for registration links.)

In the meantime, please make sure your student-athlete completes their sports physical as soon as possible. The start of the school year and our first practices are just around the corner, and a current physical is required for participation.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out.

The camp is being led by a talented group of coaches from Jefferson High School and offers a great opportunity for students to learn the fundamentals of the game, improve their abilities, and build confidence on the court.

We encourage any interested students and families to review the information and consider participating.
