Athletics

Athletic Program

Chestermere Athletics is dedicated to offering something for everyone. Getting involved is a major theme in Middle School. Historically, over two thirds of our students participate in either a team sport or an individual sport. The teams generally have one or two practices per week.

We offer both school division teams in the following areas: volleyball, basketball, track and badminton. The middle school philosophy encourages high participation and therefore there is a gradual emphasis from low competition in grade seven to a more highly skilled and competive competition at the grade nine level. It is the intent to provide a team or club that will accommodate all students who wish to participate in an athletic activity. Please contact the Middle School Athletic Director, Coach Ross, for further information.

CLMS Teams:

Grades 7 & 8: Volleyball, Basketball, Track and Field, and Badminton 

Grade 9: Golf, Volleyball, Basketball, Curling, Badminton, and Track and Field

Code of Conduct

Whether I am a player or a spectator at a school athletic function, I realize that I am under the school's jurisdiction. Because my actions reflect on the school that I represent, I recognize my responsibility to exemplify the highest standards of conduct.

I will:

  • offer constructive support of my team, rather than criticize the opposition.
  • show appreciation of good plays by both teams.
  • as a host, welcome the visitors as guests, offering all possible assistance.
  • as a visitor, respect the property of the host school, and accept the host regulations.
  • recognize the officials' integrity, realizing the difficulty of their decisions.
  • accept the officials' decisions as final.
  • respect the feelings of all participants, and show sympathy for an injured or disqualified player.
  • learn the rules of the game (and play by them at all times).
  • accept either victory or defeat graciously, respecting the efforts displayed by all.
  • express thanks to those responsible for the opportunity to enjoy a school sports activity.
