In order to be eligible for participation in PGHS Athletics, student-athletes must have passed the equivalent of 5 subjects from the prior semester and must be enrolled in at least 3 subjects for the current semester.  All participants must sign up using the New Athlete Google Link above and have a completed VHSL physical form dated after May 1, 2024 and Emergency Info form uploaded prior to the first day of tryouts.

The Virginia High School League requires school districts to monitor spectator behavior at all school sponsored activities. Accordingly, an event supervisor(s) may request any person involved in misconduct to leave the premises and may contact the police for assistance. The school has the authority to suspend individuals from attending all school sponsored activities for spectator misconduct.

Prince George County Public Schools appreciates positive support from all spectators and have the following expectations:

  1. Be a positive role model.
  2. Realize that you represent the school and community and, therefore, have an obligation to be a true sportsman, encouraging through positive behavior the practice of good sportsmanship by others.
  3. Be a “team fan” and a “my kid fan.”
  4. Recognize that good sportsmanship is more important than victory by approving and applauding good team play, individual skill, and outstanding examples of sportsmanship and fair play exhibited by either team.
  5. Recognize that since the primary purpose of interscholastic athletics is to promote the physical, mental, moral, social, and emotional well-being of the players, victory or defeat are of secondary importance.
  6. Treat visiting teams and officials as guests, extending to them every courtesy.
  7. Be modest in victory and gracious in defeat.
  8. Respect the judgment and integrity of officials, realizing that their decisions are based upon game conditions.
  9. Respect the coaches and administration.
  10. Remember that a ticket to a school athletic event is revocable without refund.

Thank you and GOOD LUCK to all our teams.
