RE: Athletics Report

We are finally in phase 2 and now all of our season 1 athletes get to compete against other schools!

Woodland Middle School

The middle school sports practices began Feb. 1st and we have kids participating in football (37), volleyball (20), soccer (22), cross country (3), and boys golf (7).

  • Our first games will be next week vs La Center.
  • Since there is no middle school league this year, we are trying to find games with La Center, King’s Way, Castle Rock, Huntington, and Coweeman.

Basketball, Wrestling, and Track seasons are still TBD.

Woodland High School

Season 1 began for Football (62), Volleyball (27), Girls’ Soccer (22), Boys’ Golf (11), Cross Country (23), Dance (5), and Cheer (8) on Feb. 1st.

  • We hosted our first home volleyball, soccer, and cross country events in 1 ½ years and it all has been very positive so far.
    • Fans were great, players are having fun and everyone is grateful that we are providing this opportunity for our kids.
    • Due to covid guidelines, attendance is restricted (we are prioritizing family members).
    • We are providing free live streaming of all gymnasium and stadium events – HUGE thank you to Travis Borders and the tech department for helping to get that set up.
    • We are doing online ticketing to control attendance at games.
  • Our first home football game is Saturday, Feb. 20th vs Columbia River here at Beaver Stadium at 4 p.m.

  1. Season 2 sports are projected to start on March 22nd. These will be our traditional spring sports (baseball, fastpitch, track, girls’ golf, and boys’ soccer).
  2. It has been amazing to watch everyone come together to help make sports happen for our kids. There are so many moving parts to all of this and everyone has been so helpful.
    1. We actually had a combination of students, community members, parents, and admin clear our turf field of snow by hand shovel so that we could play our first soccer game! Amazing!
