HIGHROAD ACADEMY KNIGHTS

At this time, all athletic information can be found in myhra or the Highroad app. There will be two athletic calendars, one for practices and another for games. Please go there to find information regarding practices/game times, etc.

Thanks.

Unfortunately, at this time, both basketball camps have been cancelled. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause anyone. We hope everyone has a great rest of their summer.

Pastor Barrie and friends are doing it again! For the 2nd summer in a row, they are offering their time and basketball knowledge to help athletes get a good start to the new school year!

This is open to players entering grades 6-12. The cost is $25. Players will receive a t-shirt commemorating their participation.

Boys – August 5-7, 6:30 – 8:30 PM
Girls – August 12-14, 6:30 – 8:30 PM

Please register through the school store.

This is a great opportunity for interested basketball players! Parents, it is a great opportunity to possibly go out for supper without the kids!

On June 16th, at 6:30 PM, we are hosting this year’s athletic awards evening. There will be beverages and desserts! There will be awards! And our hope is that it will be a great time for all who attend.

Tickets are now on sale for $10. After June 9th, tickets go up in price to $15. This is to help us get a better idea of how many people will be coming, in order that we can buy close to the right amount of stuff. Please purchase tickets from the link at the bottom. (Copy and paste in a new window.)

All athletes and families are welcome to attend the evening. Athletes do need to purchase their own ticket. All members of a team who are at the event, will be called up to the stage. After the team awards are given out, a photo will be taken of the team, on stage.

PLEASE check your player’s room and bags to determine if all Highroad jerseys and shorts have been returned. We would like to get them back this next week! Thanks!

Good day. Please consider the following.

1. Returning jerseys/paying athletic fees. As the final basketball teams have ended their seasons, please check to see if there are any Highroad jerseys still in your home. As well, I will be in contact with those who haven’t paid any athletic fees.

Good evening. The Junior Girls’ game scheduled for Monday has been postponed. The Senior Boys’ game is still happening at 6:30 PM.

The Senior Boys’ team is playing their final game of the season on Monday. The game will be against Fraser Valley Adventist and will start at 6:30 PM (weather permitting). This will be the final home game for our grade 12 players. Please come out and help us recognize Sam, Ethan, Adryan and Matthew for their contribution to basketball at Highroad. We will have a small ceremony at the end of the game.

This Monday promises to be interesting! There is a snowfall warning in place, and the snow is already starting to fall. Please check here and the Highroad Academy website to see if school will be cancelled. (If school is cancelled, there will not be a practice tomorrow.)

If we are able to move forward with the scheduled games, there are some significant ones planned. The Junior Girls’ team will be playing their final game against Fraser Valley Adventist. This game will start at 5:00 PM and will be played at Highroad.

The Grade 9 Boys’ team will be playing their first Fraser Valley East (FVE) playoff game. If they win, they will be playing in the Eastern Valley Athletic Association (EVAA) playoffs next week. This game will start at 5:30 PM and will be played at GW Graham.

There is a 3rd significant game. Please see the post above this for details about the Senior Boys’ team final game.
