2023-2024 Physical Paperwork for Athletics is Due on the Following Dates:

Fall Sports- September 8, 2023

Winter Sports- October 27, 2023

Spring Sports- March 1, 2024

To All Students and Parents,

An up-to-date sports physical (current within one year of the try-out date) is required of every student who wishes to try out for afterschool sports. Each season, at least one month prior to tryouts, the deadline for sports physicals is announced daily. Additionally, an email is sent home to parents announcing the start of the new sports season and the deadline for all paperwork.

A current, valid sports physical is a mandatory requirement of the State of New Jersey for all student-athletes. All students must submit a sports physical by the deadline date or he/she will be ineligible for try-outs. Due to the volume of physicals we receive and the review process, we cannot extend the deadline.

Sports physicals completed by a private physician must be completed in their entirety. For example, vital signs and hearing and vision screenings must be completed by your primary physician. Our School doctor will not sign off on incomplete forms. Incomplete forms will cause delays in students being cleared to play and could result in a student missing tryouts for a particular sport.

THERE ARE NO REFUNDS FOR SPORTS OR ACTIVITIES. If you are registering for a sport or activity that requires a physical, please make sure you have provided your school nurse with the physical form.

Students are responsible for ensuring their physical is current and are welcome to check their status with the nurse.
