Winter sports are just around the corner here at Oakland Mills, and all of our coaches are very excited to meet their new potential athletes. We have various winter sports at OM, so put yourself out there this season and try out for a team! We have boys’ and girls’ basketball, indoor track and field, winter cheerleading, and a wrestling team. Regardless of what sport you are trying out for, you must have at least a 2.0 GPA with no more than one E. All athletes must register for winter sports on their HCPSS Connect account prior to tryouts. If you have any questions or concerns about a particular sport, don’t hesitate to connect with a coach! Most of them work here in the school.
