DPM offers interscholastic athletics throughout four different seasons. All teams are members of the Lakeside Conference and/or the Illinois Elementary School Association. A current physical (valid for 13 months) is required to be on file with the school nurse in order to participate and/or tryout for school athletics. Below you will find information such as tryout dates, coaching information, associated participation fees, as well as an overview of each sport offered.

School sponsored intramural (in-house) activities are based on a sign-up or show-up basis and will be supervised by a faculty sponsor. The sponsors' primary responsibilities are organization and supervision of the activity. Sixth grade intramural basketball and cheerleading are an exception whereas each team will have a coach and uniforms. We do not offer a fifth grade basketball intramural program. Contact the Lake Forest Recreation Center for information on their programs.
Please view the recording below of the DPM Virtual Athletic Information Meeting, held on Wednesday, August 25th. Our Co-Athletic Directors, Ed Juergensen and Rob Wegley, provided an overview of the interscholastic athletic program.
Practices and tryouts for the fall season begin on Monday, August 30th after school for Girls Volleyball, Boys and Girls Cross Country, Co-ed Soccer, and Girls Field Hockey.
