Sports Starting Dates
Fall 8th grade athletics will start as early as August 23th.
Winning Edge Strength & Conditioning
A key component to the success of our athletics is preparing their bodies for athletic competition. The Activities Department has made significant investments in the weight room facilities at both Northview and Ankeny Centennial High School. We encourage your son or daughter to take advantage of the programs we will offer through our after school program and Winning Edge summer camp opportunities.
Summer Camps
Each sport at Ankeny Centennial High School offers a variety of summer camps for students who are interested in learning appropriate skills and techniques that will be used in the individual sports seasons. This is also a great opportunity to meet the 8th grade coaches. These low cost, high skill development camps can be found at: www.ankenycamps.com (please check on a regular basis as new camps are constantly being added).
