Powhatan High School will be holding Basketball Open Gym on selected days during the fall sports season. We encourage your participation, but please be reminded of the requirements to participate in Open Gym.
Participants must have a VHSL Physical Form completed, and have a permission form signed by both the student and a parent/guardian, in order to participate in Open Gym. These must both be on file with the coaches before you may participate. Please take care of these as soon as possible to ensure that participants will not miss any gym time. BOTH FORMS ARE AVAILABLE IN THE FRONT OFFICE OF POWHATAN HIGH SCHOOL.
The first Open Gym day is set for Wednesday, Sept. 17, with one Open Gym per week in September, and two Open Gyms per week in October. The complete Open Gym schedule will be posted at the start of the school year.
If you have any questions, email Assistant Coach Matthew Pearman.
