Summer 2016 - To Do List (Fall Sports Paperwork)

Summer 2016 - To Do List will be a series of blog posts to help get everyone ready for school in September. 

The fall season is almost upon us and the deadline of JULY 29th to hand in fall paperwork is even closer.  I wanted to reach out to explain exactly what 4 things are needed in order to be cleared for participation for the fall season.  If you are not participating in a fall sport you can disregard this email.

The following links contain the files and information required for participation.  These forms must be completed in full, and without errors or they will be returned for completion.

Required Athletic Paperwork for High School Sports

This Link shows if you are cleared.  If you are not, it shows the specific forms you are missing:

Fall Clearance List

This should contain just about all the information you need in order to be cleared.  Below are some notes and other information that may be helpful if you still have questions.

A few notes:

-The physical must be completed in full and signed by the student, parent, and physician in all the applicable places.  Please take care to note before leaving the doctor's office, all values (height, weight, vision etc.)  must be filled in or the physical will be returned for completion.

-If the athlete sees an eye doctor the physician who performs the physical might not perform vision, in this case a copy of an eye glass or contacts prescription must be provided.

-All athletes participating in fall need to fill out a health history update (Item 2).  While this is exactly the same form that was filled out for summer practices, the state considers the summer and fall separate seasons.  So an additional HHU needs to be filled out for the fall season as it does for Winter and Spring.

-The Genesis forms (items 3 and 4) will be open for the 2016-2017 school year on TUESDAY 7/12

-Forms will be collected 7/15 and 7/22.  I recommend submitting all forms by 7/22, this will allow adequate time for forms to be returned and corrected if there are any errors.  While the deadline is 7/29, if there are any errors forms will be returned via mail and this may delay participation.

If you have any other questions or concerns, please contact Jeff Basilicato via email, as I will not be in my office until August 10th.  Thanks and enjoy the rest of summer!
