MIDDLE SCHOOL ATHLETICS

The Start of Something Bigger.

Middle school is a time for students to discover new interests and build friendships, and athletics can be an important part of that journey!

Carmen middle school athletics give students opportunities to get active, try something new, and build relationships with their peers outside of the classroom. Along the way, students develop skills that extend far beyond sports.  Student athletes strengthen their communication skills, learn more about teamwork, perseverance, leadership, and how to both depend on and show up for others.

And students don’t have to arrive as experienced athletes. Middle school is a great time to give it a try.

Get in the Game

Depending on the campus and season, Carmen middle school students may have opportunities to participate in:

Co-Ed Flag Football

Learn the fundamentals while building communication, strategy, and teamwork.

Basketball

Develop skills on the court while learning discipline, confidence, and how to compete as a team.

Volleyball

Build coordination, communication, and collaboration.

And More

Athletic offerings vary by campus and may change from year to year, giving students different ways to get involved.

A Natural Part of the
Middle School Experience

BUILD CONFIDENCE

Sports give students another way to stay active, develop healthy habits, and build their confidence through practice and progress.

BUILD RESILIENCE

Athletics can provide a space for students to navigate challenges, use critical thinking skills, manage disappointments, and learn from their mistakes.

STUDENT-ATHLETE DEVELOPMENT

Skills for the Game—and

COMMUNITY + SCHOOL PRIDE

The Start of Something Bigger.

More Than a Game

Some of the best moments in Carmen Athletics happen beyond the scoreboard. Games and competitions give students, families, staff, alumni, and supporters opportunities to come together, celebrate our student-athletes, and show their Carmen pride.

When our Eagles and Phoenix take the court or field, they represent more than themselves, they represent their teammates, their campus, and their community.
