Athletes may participate in more than one sport at Notre Dame-Bishop Gibbons in any one sport season (fall, winter or spring) if both coaches concur and cooperatively work out the details of practices, games, etc. with the athlete. The athlete who is attempting to “double up” must declare one of the sports as a “sport of first priority”. This means the athlete will attend all “events” (contests, practices, meetings, etc.) connected with that squad. The athlete may participate with the other squad during the time there are no obligations to the sport of first priority. It should be emphasized that the school can benefit from multi-sport participation and that disciplined athletes can be successful.
Cheerleading is considered to be a sport and will be included in all of the above standards. It is the ultimate decision of the coach of the secondary sport to determine whether or not participation on their team will be allowed
