MBMS is excited to partner with MBX and take our after school sports to another level. If your student is trying out for Fall MBMS Athletics, review the MBMS Athletics Presentation Slideshow and Recording to hear about important registration and tryout information, including what you need to know before participating.
All families must attend the MBMS Athletics Zoom Webinar, and athletes must register for their sport before attending tryouts.CANCELLATION & REFUND POLICY FOR MBMS ATHLETICS
