Athletics and arts at Manhattan Beach Middle School.

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.
NEW THIS YEAR: All families must attend the MBMS Athletics Zoom Webinar, and athletes must register for their sport before attending tryouts.CANCELLATION & REFUND POLICY:
Refund Processing: Refunds are processed when the cancellation is received.
Participant Cancellations: Cancellations received after registration closes but before the session begins are eligible for a full refund, less a $20 administration fee. This fee applies only if the credit card has already been charged.
Cancellations After the First Practice: No refunds will be issued.
MBX Cancellations: Full refunds are issued for any class cancelled by MBX.
Weather-Related Cancellations: If an after-school program class must be cancelled due to weather or other circumstances beyond our control, including natural events, refunds or credits will not be issued. Staffing, facility and program expenses may still be incurred under these circumstances. Every effort will be made to notify families as far in advance as possible if a cancellation occurs.
Please review the following steps for the MBMS Fall Sports tryout and registration process, which include Boys Flag Football, Cheer, Cross Country, and Girls Volleyball.
The MBMS Athletics Zoom Webinar took place on Monday, August 24, 2026. View the presentation · Listen to the recording.
Register through 6crickets prior to tryouts. Credit card information is collected during registration, but your card will not be charged unless your student makes the team.
Students registered through 6crickets will be checked in for tryouts. Students who are not registered will not be permitted to participate that day.
After tryouts, the coach will post a list of students who have made the team.
The final team list will be sent to MBX.
MBX will send an official registration letter to families. At that time, the credit card on file will be charged for students who made the team.
The Athletic Director will communicate the team schedule and practice times directly to families.
Good luck at tryouts, and have a great season!
