PHYSICAL RE-CERTIFICATION
Comprehensive physicals using the CIPPE form are good for one calendar year; however, students must be re-certified when playing a subsequent sport. Re-certification means parents must complete Section 5 of the CIPPE. Section 5 asks several questions regarding the student’s health history since their physical exam. If all of the health history questions are answered no, Section 5 will re-certify the student for participation. If any health history question on Section 5 is answered yes, the student must see a Doctor and turn in Section 6 to be re-certified for participation.
PLEASE TAKE NOTE THAT THE P.I.A.A. REQUIRES:
A PHYSICAL EXAM BEFORE AN ATHLETE CAN BEGIN TO PRACTICE, INCLUDING TRY-OUTS.
THAT NO PHYSICAL EXAM TAKE PLACE BEFORE SIX (6) WEEKS PRIOR TO THE FIRST PRACTICE FOR EACH SEASON.
