Athletics
Welcome to Sierra High School Athletics and Activities. We are honored that you have chosen Sierra High School as your educational institution and are interested in participating in athletics.
Sierra High School is steeped in tradition with many programs that have excelled at both the city and state level. Our Boy's Basketball team are 4x State Champions in Colorado with many Final Four appearances and League Championships. Our Girls Basketball team has made the playoffs in the past 15 years with an appearance in the Great 8 in 2018. We have had two former Stallions play in the National Football League, Alex Molden and Aaron Smith (2x Super Bowl Champion for the Pittsburg Steelers). On the Basketball side, our own Chucky Jeffery played in the WNBA with Minnesota and New York and currently plays professionally overseas. We also have Shamela Hampton who plays professional basketball overseas.
Beyond the many successes we have had in these top programs, our athletic programs offer a wide range for our students and there is always something for them to do when they attend Sierra High School.

Students must be registered for Sierra Athletics
Students must have a current physical examination uploaded before the student is authorized to participate in practice/tryouts. To ensure clearance for participation, physicals should be completed and uploaded no later than 3 school days prior to the first day of practice/tryout. Physicals are valid for 1 year from the date of the exam.
Vision
Participation in athletics means more than competition between two individuals or two teams representing their respective schools. It teaches fair play, sportsmanship, and an understanding and appreciation of teamwork. It gives the athlete an appreciation that hard work is the most necessary ingredient of success. The policies outlined in this handbook were created for all stakeholders' use.
Sierra High School is committed to providing the very best atmosphere for our student athletes to achieve their goals both on the playing surface and in the classroom. Athletes experience high school sports once, and we strive to assist them, so they leave with no regrets. It is their time, their experience. We believe in pushing student-athletes for “Excellence in Every Endeavor.”
