Dear Phoenix Community,
Thank you for your patience and understanding as we navigate this unprecedented start to the 2025 fall season for middle school sports. We deeply appreciate your support as we work through the unique challenges of this year.
Please know that our coaches remain fully committed to creating the best possible opportunities and experiences for our student-athletes, even within the conditions we have been asked to adapt to. Their dedication to both growth and community is unwavering.
For those already connected with our teams, you are aware that we have been actively sharing updates and information through our team-specific BAND apps. If you are not yet connected but are interested in joining a sport, we encourage you to visit our school website, navigate to the sport you are interested in, and join the linked BAND group. This will be the most reliable source for up-to-date information regarding schedules, events, and team communication.
Thank you again for your continued partnership and support. Together, we can ensure our student-athletes have a positive and memorable season. Below you will find specific practice plans for each team this week.
With appreciation,
Gabriel Vigil

I polled parents and found that some would like am and some would like pm – we will offer a mix of both this week.
Monday and Tuesday – 6:30 am optional sessions only
Wednesday and Thursday – 6:30 am AND 6:30 pm optional sessions
Friday – 6:30 am session only (we have a Spike Night event at Altitude Running in the evening)
We will be posting any updates and changes through our BAND APP. Our link is fixed on the website. We will post this schedule to BAND.
Coach Buxman
Boltz Football
We have scheduled two morning and two evening practices for the week:
Monday & Wednesday: 6:30 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.
Tuesday & Thursday: 6:00 a.m. to 7:00 a.m.
There will be no practice on Friday.
While the turnaround from Monday night to Tuesday morning is quick, this schedule allows for an extended recovery period between practices on Tuesday and Wednesday.
All students must focus on hydrating throughout the week, not just during practice. My goal is for every student to have an opportunity to attend at least two practices this week, and I understand that circumstances may prevent them from attending every session. Please message me on BAND or post for any support needed.
Thank you,
Coach, Janicki
