Winter 2024 SPORTS REGISTRATION IS OPEN!

CLICK HERE TO REGISTER 

Dear Rock Ridge 7th – 12th Grade Parents and Students:

All sports registrations will be completed electronically .

To register electronically, you will need to create an account if you have not already done so. If you are creating an account for the first time, you will need to have the participant’s sports physical exam date.  A sports physical is good for 3 years and is usually done in 7th and 10th grade.

  • Any student who has not previously participated and who does not have a physical on file is required to have a physical and clearance prior to participation.
  • Set up a sports physical with your child’s doctor as soon as possible because when August comes around, it can be difficult to get a sports physical completed before fall sports start.

If you have any questions, please contact Josh Lamppa or stop in the Activities Office at RRHS.

    TRAP TEAM: MESABI EAST/ROCK RIDGE (Head Coach: Jon Stordahl)

    Mesabi East/Rock Ridge Fall High School Trap Season 2024

    Fall is here and we are about to start the Fall season for trap. This event is held Monday afternoons starting at 4 PM until everyone has completed their two rounds of shooting, cleanup, and equipment put away. Even though everyone shoots individually, this is a TEAM sport and everyone is encouraged to assist each other and the team.

    There is limited space due to coaching staff and help. Parents are encouraged to assist with cleanup and scoring if needed. (They are not allowed on the line to talk to their child or others.)
    Athlete must have their Gun Safety completed to participate as we are teaching trap – safety should be second nature already and lack of it will cause an athlete to be asked to leave.
    Season begins Sept. 16 and goes for 6 weeks ending Oct. 29. We shoot rain or snow. The only time we would cancel is if it is wet and cold. Nobody needs to get sick and will pick another day to shoot.

    Cost is down due to fundraising by our parents group. For 6 weeks, shooting two rounds per time, the cost will be $111 due on the first day of practice. Cash or checks (made out to ERS&CC) will be accepted.

    If interested in joining the Minnesota State High School Trap League, you must register before Sept. 9 with a cost of $40 paid to the League. This reserves your spot if opening available for the spring season.

    For more information Contact Head Coach Jon Stordahl [email protected]. Ph 218-780-4600, leave message and phone number.
