Important Information for Parents/Guardians
The Advanced Placement Process test (APP) is meant for a select group of student athletes only. In reviewing the following paperwork please keep in mind that this process is not intended for students who just participate in WNY travel and/or recreational teams. The intent of this process is for those select few students that have always quote, "Dominated" at their level. It is for student athletes that are drastically more skilled, and more mature physically and mentally to warrant participating on the Junior Varsity or Varsity level.
The Lewiston-Porter Athletics Department advises you as the parent/guardian to advocate for your child to go through this process if your child falls under the above criteria. If the following situations listed below are the cause for your child to attempt this process, we advise that you continue on in the age appropriate level of Modified Sports.
The Wrong Reasons:
- His/Her friends play on the team
- They need more players at that level
- He/She have always been on travel teams
- We are good friends with the coach
- He/She are physically gifted but their maturity levels are low
- I, the parent/guardian, played up when I was in school
- My child needs to be pushed to be successful
Please note: By successfully completing this process, the student athlete is only offered the chance to try-out for the upper level Varsity or Junior Varsity team. There is no guarantee they will be on the team by passing these tests.
