Overview

Kang Football is comprised of several separate but related programs that are intended to provide student athletes with year-round fitness, training and team building activities.

Athletic Seasons

The Lake Washington School District  divides the year into Winter Sports, Spring Sports, Summer Athletics and Fall  Sports. Football is considered a Fall Sport with Summer Athletics.

• Spring Season (Summer Athletics) - Runs early June 6 through early July.  This season gives players and coaches a chance to get to know each other, practice, experiment with different positions and learn about Kang Football. The season concludes with a team scrimmage.  Registration opens late May. 

• Summer Practices - Held on July, days and times TBD. These practices help the team build skills and connections.  

• GRIT Camp - A 3-day trip where players and coaches can bond, work on skills and practice.  Full details available at https://www.kangfootball.com/camp

• Speed and Strength Training (Spring & Summer) - Team building, weight training and physical fitness. Meets typically 4 days a week in the weight room. 

• Fall Season - Runs mid Aug - early Dec. Games are weekly and culminate with the Playoffs and State Championship. Registration is open early Aug.

• Strength and Conditioning (Fall & Winter) - Team building, weight training and physical fitness. Meets typically 4 days a week in the weight room. 

To participate in any of these activities,  student athletes must be registered with the district during the open enrollment period for each season.

There are several steps involved in registering your student for the football program, getting them connected with the team communications system and making sure that parents/guardians are kept informed.

Student Activities 

1. Students must with their parent/guardian's permission register for a Hudl account at Hudl.com/jointeam. Use Team Code: fdgwvj3

Parent Activities 

1. Parents must register their player on the LWSD website by going to Final Forms, filling out and submitting the 3 required registration forms, then pay the district managed fees using Online Payments  during each enrollment period. This can only be done during the open registration periods.

We appreciate that families have their own views and abilities when it comes to paying for their student athlete's program costs.

If a family is able and wants to write a check upfront for the season costs and not engage in community fundraising, that is fine. For others, the Gridiron Club coordinates several fundraising activities throughout the year to help families defer the program costs. These events may include:

Hour-A-Thon - Students collect names of extended family and friends and make calls asking for financial donations
Gold Book - Athletes can sell coupon books that advertise local businesses
Auction  - A Kang football tradition. The Annual Auction is a chance to eat, drink, socialize and bid on fabulous merchandise
Program Advertisements  - We sell advertisement space in the game program

An essential part of any successful football program are the Fans. We encourage all parents, guardians, family and friends to come out to each game and cheer on the Kangs! 

When the stands are full of excited, encouraging and supportive fans, the athletes feel and feed on the energy. It enhances their confidence and commitment and they dig a little deeper and give the game their all.
