Egan After School Sports
Welcome to the Egan Junior High School After-School Sports Program, which is run by the Los Altos Recreation Department with the support of the Egan Athletic Boosters and the Egan Student Council.
It is the goal of this program to provide an inter-school athletic program to as many students as possible. The program offers sport-specific instruction and reinforces the principles of teamwork, self-esteem building, self-discipline and conscientious sportsmanship by student-athletes, coaches, referees, parents and administrators.
During the 2010-2011 school year, we will again be participating in the Valley Junior High School Athletic League, which includes schools in Los Altos, Mountain View, Cupertino, Sunnyvale and San Jose. We are pleased with our continuing relationship with these schools, as it has provided us with a wide base of competition for our after-school sports program.
The City of Los Altos Recreation Department is always interested in speaking with individuals who might be interested in coaching or officiating during the school year. Parents are welcome to coach or officiate. Parents are also welcome to coach a team that their child is participating on. If you know of anyone who might be interested, please contact the Egan Athletic Director Jason Carballar.
Teams are divided by grade level and gender. Volleyball and Basketball teams also have C Teams which have a height requirement of being below 5’3’’. Due to the high interest in many of the sports there is sometimes a try-out process to determine the team. Try-outs, beginning in late August, are based upon attitude, skill level, and current academic standin.
