Dodgeland Athletics Information

Dodgeland students have the opportunity to participate in a variety of sports and activities that include individual and team based competitions. No students are cut from participation in our programs. Students desiring to participate are always included with coaches placing them on teams which best align to their experience and ability. Helping each athlete improve their individual and team skills as well as developing positive teamwork and communication is the goal of every program. 

A daily late bus is provided by the district to ensure that all students have the opportunity to participate in school based athletics and other after school co-curricular activities. Students must sign up each day to ride the late bus that departs from the middle/high school entrance at 5:10 pm daily. The following reminder and link is provided in our daily student announcements:

The late bus is available to students that have an after school supervised event or activity with a teacher, coach or advisor. Students must sign up daily by 12:00 to be permitted onto the bus. Sign up is done via the Dodgeland Late Bus Google Form.

August 2020 Athletic Update

The COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact Wisconsin’s planning for the 2020-2021 school year. Providing Dodgeland district families our plan for athletic activities for the remainder of the summer and start of the 2020 fall seasons is outlined in the letter mailed to families on July 15th. This letter can be found in the "Forms and Documents" section below. This plan represents the best information that we have at this time. Information and guidance from local, state, and federal agencies continue to guide our planning and decisions. Please know that it is possible that this plan will need to be changed in response to updated data and guidance. As we experienced in March, this change may need to occur overnight.

At this time, we do not know if we will be able to play sports this fall or during the 20-21 school year. We continue to plan for our seasons and hope we can provide some level of activity for our athletic teams. We would like to see our teams be able to start practices as planned, but the decision for the start and duration of team practices will be made with the consultation of public health officials. The district’s re-opening plan will be shared with parents once the school board approves the final version in late July. Keeping all of these circumstances in mind, we share with you this athletic information. We thank you in advance for your support and understanding.

This summer, Marshfield Medical Center - Beaver Dam - Institute for Movement and Orthopedics will be providing athletic physicals at both their Beaver Dam and Juneau offices. Physicals cost $55.50 and are available by appointment only. A document identifying athletic physical status for each student in grades 5-12 along with additional details was also enclosed in the mailing. Call to schedule a physical now as appointments will fill quickly:

• 920-887-5975 for the Beaver Dam Center

• 920-386-8101 for the Juneau Center

2020-2021 Mandatory Sports Meeting

The Dodgeland School District will be providing a VIRTUAL sports meeting, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, for all parents and student-athletes in grades 5-12. This recorded virtual meeting is scheduled to premier on Tuesday, July 28th at 7:00 pm. The link to this meeting will be sent to all families via School Messenger and it will also be posted on the district website and Facebook page. The Wisconsin Concussion Law, Act 172, Statute 118.293 requires all parents/guardians and athletes to be educated on the risks of concussions and head injuries. Therefore, any student planning on participating in any athletic activity during the 2020-2021 school year must view this virtual meeting with a parent or guardian. 

The Dodgeland 2020-2021 Athletic Meeting is viewable on the district YouTube channel.

At the conclusion of the virtual meeting, athletes and parents will receive instructions and access to complete a meeting verification form. A student-athlete may not participate in any practices until this meeting obligation is fulfilled by both the student and parent.

The Meeting Verification Form can be accessed via the Sports Meeting Verification Form.

Copies of physical and alternate year cards, along with other documents, are available in the Middle/High School office and can also be found on the Athletic Forms page of our website.
