Dear 7th & 8th Grade Students and Parents,

I hope you are all having a great summer so far. As we prepare for the summer conditioning months, I wanted to inform you of some important information that you will need to know for the fall sports season. After having discussions with our middle school head coaches for the fall sports, we would like to offer your son/daughter the opportunity to dual participate in two fall sports this coming 2025 season. Unlike in other seasons (winter and spring), our middle school students do not have the option of participating in the sports that are offered. The purpose of this is to allow your son/daughter the opportunity to experience both sports if they are interested. This way, when they get to high school, they know which sport they would like to participate in. It is important to understand that when students get to high school, they cannot dual participate in a sport per NSAA By-Laws for 9th-12th grades.
The fall sports that this will impact for your son/daughter are Football, Volleyball, and Cross Country. Our coaches agree that they will work with your son/daughter if they wish to dual participate this fall. We know that there will be some logistics to be worked out as far as practices and competitions. Our coaches will work through those with your son/daughter and communicate with their parents.
If your son/daughter is interested in participating in two sports this fall (FB/XC, VB/XC), please contact the coaches below. This way, they can begin to plan out how this will work in the fall.

Coy Gager: 8th Grade Middle School Head Football Coach. coygager@opsd.org
Carter Brown 7th grade FB carterbrown@opsd.org,
Shane Fruit: Middle School Head Cross Country Coach shanefruit@opsd.org,
Alysha Slama 8th grade VB alyshaslama@opsd.org
Rozy Tuttle: 7th Grade Head Volleyball Coach. rozytuttle@opsd.org ,
If you have any questions, feel free to contact the coach above or me. Have a great summer!

Sincerely,
Dano Stokey, OPSD Activities Director

🏈 Youth Football Camp Wrap-Up! 🏈 From June 9–12, Ogallala Football hosted its annual Youth Football Camp for 2nd–6th graders. The camp was a blast for all attendees! Nearly 50 young athletes showed up ready to learn, hustle, and have fun. Throughout the week, campers worked hard on fundamental football skills, competed in a Punt, Pass, & Kick contest, and ended the camp with some exciting flag football games, complete with a championship round! Led by new head coach Coach Dinan, along with an incredible crew of coaches and players, the camp was a huge success. ⭐️A huge thank-you to Adams Bank & Trust for sponsoring the camp t-shirts!⭐️ We’re already looking forward to seeing these young athletes on the field again soon!
