FRAMINGHAM, MA<\/strong> - Back to school also means it's time for many kids to start various fall sports.<\/p>\n

Parents, student athletes, coaches and others involved in Framingham sports may be overwhelmed if they have to organize sports schedules -- especially if they have to coordinate between two or more sports -- or for more than one person or team's schedule.<\/p>\n

Of course, the best source of info is from the organization which runs the particular sports program.<\/p>\n

Most print a schedule that they hand out at the beginning of a season -- but in these online, \"socially networked<\/em>\" times -- using the internet simply make more sense.\u00a0 Schedules change. Games get rained out. Events get rescheduled. Printed paper schedules could never keep up.<\/p>\n

With that in mind, we've dug up some of the best sites to find Framingham Sports info.<\/p>\n

If you're a Framingham High School<\/strong> athlete, (or the parent of one -- or a \"local sports nut\"), and are looking for info on when and where try-outs, practices and games are, you can start at the www.FlyerAthletics.com<\/a> website.\u00a0 Aside from the local content, the site contains links to the www.BayStateConference.com<\/a> and www.HighSchoolSports.net<\/a> websites.<\/p>\n

\"HighSchoolSports.net<\/em>\" contains a wide range of info and has several options including allowing you to select a school, (FHS is listed), and view calendars and schedules for one sport, several sports, or all sports for that school.\u00a0 To make it easy, here's a link to view the current month's schedule of all FHS sports events<\/a> with one click!<\/p>\n

The Joseph P. Keefe Regional Vocational High School in Framingham, (or simply \"Keefe Tech<\/strong><\/em>\" as it's known locally), <\/em> has its own sports teams which compete in the Colonial Athletic League.\u00a0 <\/em>You can find info about Keefe Tech athletics at: www.keefetech.org\/athletics<\/a> (Note: Until 2009 Keefe Tech's football team was known as the \"Unicorns\" but changed their mascot and name to the \"Broncos\")<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Looking for local Framingham college sports info?<\/em> Framingham State University<\/strong> athletics official FSU \"RAMS\" sports info along with links to related NCAA, MASCAC and ECAC websites can be found at: www.fsurams.com<\/a><\/p>\n

Besides FHS, FSU and \"Keefe\", in Framingham, many kids also play soccer in Framingham United Soccer Club<\/strong>. Info for the club can be found at: www.FUSC.org<\/a>, (the 2011 fall season starts Saturday, Sept. 10th -- late registration is still open<\/a> through Sept. 15th!)<\/p>\n

There are also many other non-school related sports activities for kids (and adults) in Framingham including Babe Ruth Baseball, Temple Beth Sholom Basketball, Loring Arena Ice-skating, Framingham Running Clubs -- even a local semi-pro football team, The Metrowest Colonial! We've maintained and published a comprehensive list of sports in Framingham, along with contact info and links to each organization's website. It can be found on our Framingham Sports<\/a><\/strong> page!<\/p>\n

Not sure if a game has been called off due to weather?<\/em> Among other ways of letting people know when a game has been call off, The Framingham United Soccer Club and Framingham Youth Football and Cheering both use the www.RainedOut.net<\/a> website to announce cancellations.<\/p>\n

Have we missed anything?<\/em>\u00a0 If your favorite Framingham Sports organization, team or website isn't listed on www.framingham.com -- use the comment box below to let us and others know about it!<\/p>\n
