Athletics play an important role for many students at RC Edwards Middle School. 7th and 8th grade students may participate in athletics at the middle or high school level. Athletic teams available at RC Edwards Middle School are boys basketball, girls basketball, cheerleading, football, and volleyball. RC Edwards is a member of the SCHSL and competes in the AOP Division 1 Conference for all sports.

All students must have a current physical, birth certificate, and other documentation on file before trying out for or participating on any team. All physicals must be dated on or after 4/1/23 to participate in athletics during the 23-24 school year. Detailed directions to upload these documents to BigTeams are included in the "Eligibility and Forms" tab to the left.

Participation on an athletic team is a privilege and we encourage students that are interested in a sport we offer to try out. Our goal for RC Edwards Athletics is to help our students grow as athletes and individuals through being a part of a team, following through on commitments, believing in themselves, working with others, creating goals & taking steps to achieve them, and developing character, morals, and responsibility. Athletes are representing Edwards Middle School at all times both at school and at athletic events and should display good sportsmanship and behavior at all athletic events. Athletes are expected to be positive role models for other students in school.

Edwards students are also allowed to participate on the following athletic teams at Daniel High School: Baseball, Cross Country, Golf, Soccer, Softball, Tennis, Track and Field, and Wrestling. A shuttle bus is available after school to take students from RC Edwards Middle School to Daniel High School.
