Welcome to John Jay's Athletics Department
Health, Athletics, Physical Education and Wellness
Hello families,
Our objective is to guide students in developing a healthy lifestyle that will influence them throughout their lives.
John Jay's Interscholastic Athletic program provides a competitive experience in a culture that maximizes development, teaches important life lessons and promotes individual growth within a safe and healthy environment. These experiences will become memories that will last a lifetime. The key initiatives that fuel our philosophy are “Pursuing Victory Honor” and the “Player Development Model.”
The Katonah-Lewisboro School District offers 70+ interscholastic teams at the modified, freshman, junior varsity and varsity levels.
We look forward to teaching your children.
Sincerely,
Christian McCarthy
Director of Health, Athletics, Physical Education and Wellness

Athletic Placement Process (APP):
Katonah Lewisboro School District understands that students do not mature at the same rate and there can be tremendous developmental differences between student athletes of the same age. The APP is not used to fill open roster spots, provide additional experience, or provide an opportunity when modified sports are not offered. Instead, the APP is used only when an individual athlete's athletic skill and maturity warrant moving to the Freshman, JV, or Varsity levels. As per Board of Education Resolution, only student's in grade 8 are eligible for the APP.
- Parent/Guardians of interested student athletes should complete the attached APP forms to the Athletic Office no later than Friday, October 27th.
- APP Fitness Testing Dates:
- November 1st and 2nd - 3:00 PM - JJHS Fitness Center
- Make-ups will be on November 8th and 9th - 3:00 PM - JJHS Fitness Center
The upcoming tryout schedules will be posted on the Athletic Website, Athletic Calendar, and be emailed out to all registered student/athletes via FinalForms.
If you have any questions, please reach out to the Athletic Office directly:
- Nancy West (nwest@klschools.org), Steve DelMoro (sdelmoro@klschools.org), or Chris McCarthy (cmccarthy@klschools.org)

Sports Registration
We are pleased to announce that the John Jay Athletic Department has partnered with Final Forms as the new platform for registering students for sports.
FinalForms allows you to complete and sign athletic participation forms for your child. FinalForms stores and saves data from season-to-season and year-to-year which means you never need to enter the same information twice! FinalForms also pre-populates information, wherever possible, to save time! Click on Parent Playbook (attached) to get started in FinalForms. If you require support during the registration process, scroll to the bottom of the page and click “Use Support”. Register at: https://katonahlewisboro-ny.finalforms.com/ and follow the prompts to create your account and get started!
