All students who are planning to try out/participate in a fall sport must submit the appropriate physical exam form and ImPact testing consent form to the CHS office by August 1, 2023. Our main office is open M - R 7:30 - 3:00 and Friday 7:30 - 12:00. We encourage all potential athletes to submit these forms as soon as possible, as fall sports begin in early/mid August, and all athletes must be fully cleared in order to attend tryouts or practice. For reference, the first day of football is August 7th.
Physical Exam
All athletes must complete and submit an Athletic Pre-Participation Physical Examination Form. This form is completed by a parent and the athlete’s physician and submitted to the school in hard copy. The date of your physical must be within 365 days of the first day of the athletic season (i.e. August 7th for football).
If you participated on a CHS athletic team in the 2022-2023 school year and have a physical examination form on file that is not set to expire prior to the start of the season, you may instead submit a hard copy of the Health History Update Form. You may view the date of your child's health physical by visiting the Athletics tab within the parent portal. The portal will be open until 7/4 and then will reopen on 8/4.
Impact Testing
Impact Testing Consent Form: Impact testing is a baseline concussion assessment that all student-athletes will participate in every two years. Submit this consent in hard copy along with your child’s athletic physical form or health history update form.
The electronic forms and information below will be available on the parent portal beginning August 4, 2023. All potential athletes must have their parent/guardian sign all forms electronically in the portal prior to the first practice or tryout date (August 7th for football).
