The Hamlin School guarantees all students in Grades 5-8 the opportunity to participate in Hamlin Athletics. Playing time at the Varsity, Junior Varsity, and Grade 6 levels will be based on ability, preparedness, attendance, and effort (coach’s discretion). Grade 5 level teams are organized for everyone to receive close to equal playing time by the end of the season. We compete in BAIAL, a Bay Area Independent School league.
