Amarillo ISD Summer Athletics Camps Strengthen Community Bonds Across Four Schools
Amarillo ISD programs at four high schools offer families convenient ways to stay involved during the 2026 season.
How we reported this
Amarillo ISD high schools have rolled out summer camps this July at Amarillo High, Caprock High, Palo Duro High and Tascosa High, giving local athletes and families direct access to training sessions that keep school sports active year-round.
The timing aligns with peak summer months when many Amarillo residents seek structured activities that connect young athletes with their schools and each other. These camps fit into a broader pattern where district athletics offices promote participation through organized events rather than leaving families to search independently.
Dick Bivins Stadium serves as the central venue for varsity football and other contests, with the clear bag policy now posted on the district athletics site to streamline entry for fans attending games throughout the year. The policy aims to improve safety and reduce wait times at gates for Amarillo crowds.
Digital Ticketing Expands Access for Local Fans
HomeTown Ticketing handles purchases for varsity football, volleyball and basketball contests, allowing Amarillo residents to buy and share mobile tickets ahead of time. Pre-sale football options list adult tickets at eight dollars and student tickets at three dollars through the service until 5:45 p.m. on game days, while gate prices reach ten dollars for adults. Volleyball and basketball events sell physical tickets only at activity centers on each campus for four dollars for adults and two dollars for students, with no online option available.
Sub-varsity games at the stadium carry separate pricing of four dollars for adults and two dollars for students, and all digital tickets remain non-refundable once purchased. Gold Cards and district employee badges receive acceptance at gates across these events.
Schedules and Practical Steps for Continued Participation
Coaching staff post game schedules on the Rank One Sport platform at least two weeks before contests begin, giving Amarillo families time to plan attendance. The athletics office at 806-326-1102 handles questions about digital tickets, and the district site directs users to separate links for each high school’s ticket options.
Residents can review the posted camp documents and ticket links on the Amarillo ISD athletics page to identify upcoming sessions and purchase options that fit their schedules. Checking the site regularly keeps families informed as new dates appear for the remainder of the summer.
