Walkersville Youth Supervision Form
In order to create an enjoyable and safe environment for all spectators, children who are middle school age and younger must be supervised by an adult while attending varsity football contests. Children should be seated in the stands throughout the contest with that adult unless accessing concessions, fan gear sales or the restroom. THERE IS NO MIDDLE SCHOOL SECTION. WMS students should be sitting with the adult who accompanied them into the stadium.
Please accurately complete the information in this FORM and submit the form at the “Youth Admission Gate” located directly next to the main gates of Lion Stadium. Dr. Ware, principal at Walkersville High School, came to speak to the students at WMS and they are aware of the expectations.
Remember respect during the fall athletics season.
More FCPS students than ever are taking part in fall athletics this year! As fall competitions begin, we are reminding the community about the importance of sportsmanship and respect for all.
Earlier this week, FCPS shared an update about what to expect for the upcoming fall athletics season.
Remember: School athletic events are an extension of the classroom and sportsmanship is a top priority in FCPS. We appreciate your support in showing respect for players, coaches, officials, fans and event administration.
Each year, FCPS issues a Sportsmanship Award to a school that doesn't have any student-athlete or coach ejections AND displays good sportsmanship in competitions, on the sidelines, and in the stands (parents, students, fans).
Unfortunately, there is a nationwide shortage of officials. Earlier this week, the Maryland Public Secondary Schools Athletic Association issued a memo indicating the top reason provided for this shortage is the outbursts officials receive when they are simply doing their best to support athletic competitions. We encourage everyone to read this memo.
In FCPS, we truly value all our dedicated officials and we encourage our entire community to treat them all with the respect they deserve.
Once again, FCPS will be honoring our officials throughout the school year during the MPSSAA's fall, winter and spring Officials Appreciation Weeks.
Thank you for your continued support of our athletics teams. Best wishes to all for a great season!
