About Athletics

 

Morgan Park Academy is a member of the Illinois High School Association (IHSA), which governs interscholastic sports in Illinois. The Academy is also a member of the Independent School League (ISL), where we compete for league championships with other independent schools in the area.

Interscholastic sports are an integral part of the Morgan Park Academy program. The athletics program philosophy is that each student is a valued individual with unique physical, social, emotional, and intellectual needs. The Academy prides itself on teaching the whole child.

Fall sports for the Upper School are: boys’ soccer, boys’ golf, girls’ tennis, and girls’ volleyball. In fall, Middle School boys play soccer, while girls play volleyball.

Winter sports for the Upper School are: boys’ basketball, girls’ basketball, and co-ed club bowling. In winter, Middle School boys play basketball, and girls play basketball.

Spring sports for Upper School are: boys’ baseball, boys’ tennis, girls’ softball, and girls’ soccer. In spring, Middle School boys play baseball, while girls can play softball or soccer.  For more information please contact the Director of Athletics, Lynda Pariso at lpariso@morganparkacademy.org.

A Message about Middle School Soccer Practices

Middle School Students and Parents:

Once again the summer has flown by and the beginning of school is almost upon us. That means that soccer season is also about to begin.  We would like to conduct a few pre-season practices prior to the beginning of school. This is a tremendous help in the development of the players and the teams. It is also an opportunity for the boys to get together and renew acquaintances as well as have some fun.

Players attending these practices should come dressed to practice and bring their own water bottles. These practices are not mandatory but they are very beneficial to those that attend, thus players who can make it are urged to do so. The practices are on August 24, 26, 30 and 31 from 3:15 to 5:15 p.m.  Hope to see you there.

Sincerely,

Mr. Churchill
