Winter Athletics Update

Good Morning,

I hope this message finds you safe, healthy, and well.

This is Brandon Murphy, Athletic Director at Willowbrook H.S. I am emailing to let you know that registration is still open for the 2020-2021 Winter Sports Season. 

Please read District #88’s announcement regarding Winter Athletics:

On Monday, Jan. 18, DuPage County (region 8) was moved to Phase 4 Tier 2 mitigation.  While the county remains in “substantial transmission,” as a result of this change in status and improved numbers, District 88 will implement the following (provided the community transmission levels don’t increase):
 

1. Jan. 25: District 88 will end its adaptive pause (which was implemented on Nov. 20 and suspended all in-person curricular and extracurricular activities).
    

2. Jan. 25: District 88 will begin winter sports. See important details below. Student-athletes will receive communication from their coaches with specific details.
    

Approved winter sports are:

• Boys Swimming & Diving

• Cheerleading

• Dance (Poms)

• Girls Bowling

• Girls Gymnastics

• Girls Badminton 

• At this time, we haven’t received approval from state health organizations or the Illinois High School Association (IHSA) to allow Boys and Girls Basketball to take place during the winter season. We will continue to monitor these sports and will share any provided updates.
   

Student-athletes who plan to participate in winter sports must register online at the links below.
