Maine-Endwell Athletes Get Ready for Fall Sports Season

As summer gets into full swing, student-athletes across the Maine-Endwell area are already actively preparing for the upcoming fall sports season. With preparations underway this June, the Maine-Endwell Central School District’s Athletics Department is coordinating efforts to ensure a smooth start to autumn athletic programs.

A crucial first step for aspiring fall athletes in grades 6-12 involves completing their annual sports physicals. These physicals, traditionally conducted during June, are a necessary requirement for participation in after-school sports. The Athletics Department, under the guidance of Director of Health, Physical Education, and Athletics Kevin Hores, is managing these vital pre-season activities, supported by Administrative Assistant Shelly Goldstone, Head Strength & Conditioning Coach Joshua Hodges, and Certified Athletic Trainer Debra Iwanow. Athletes are reminded that a physical exam must be valid until the end of their respective sport season and completed within the past 24 months for high school athletic registration.

Beyond physical evaluations, summer training and youth camps are providing valuable opportunities for skill development and team building. The Maine-Endwell Soccer Club is set to host its Annual Summer Soccer Camp from Monday, July 13, to Thursday, July 16, 2026. This camp, led by boys varsity soccer head coach Beau Brinsko and girls varsity soccer head coach Mark Lee, costs $75 for the first child and $50 for each sibling, with proceeds supporting the Maine-Endwell boys and girls soccer programs. Players entering first through sixth grades are welcome, and online registration is required two weeks prior to the camp's start. The Soccer Club also organizes fall soccer for ages U8 to U13, participating in the BCSA soccer league.

Football enthusiasts have a similar opportunity with a Youth Football Camp scheduled at the Maine-Endwell High School Baseball Field on July 7, 2026, running from 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM. The Maine-Endwell Youth Football and Cheer organization indicated that 2025 registration opened in May, pointing to ongoing youth football activities in the community.

With various initiatives throughout the summer, including these specialized camps and essential physical examinations, Maine-Endwell student-athletes are building a strong foundation for a successful fall season. These efforts show the community's commitment to supporting youth sports and fostering athletic excellence in football, Soccer, Cross Country, Field Hockey, and Volleyball.
