Dual Participation
The Niagara Frontier League (NFL) allows dual participation for student-athletes at Kenmore East and Kenmore West High Schools. Dual participation is defined as playing two varsity sports simultaneously in the same sports season.
The Ken-Ton School District has created a process by which student-athletes, parents/guardians, coaches, and other school personnel acknowledge the challenges that all involved parties should consider before submitting an application.
Those challenges may include but are not limited to:
- Academic issues
- Maintaining focus
- Fatigue
- Overuse of muscles, tendons, ligaments
- Insufficient recovery time
- Not really being a "member" of either team
- Meeting the state mandate for the number of practices
- Competing practice/contest schedules
- Feeling pressure from both programs, teammates, and coaches
Completing the dual participation application will begin this process. School personnel will review the application and communicate its approval or denial to the student-athlete. The application is below.
