Pediatric Sports Physical Dates
Athletes wishing to participate in a WIAA-regulated sport at their high school must have an athletic permit card (a.k.a. “the green card”) on file at their school’s athletic office. This form must be signed by a doctor or nurse practitioner, as well as by the athlete’s parents. Students may not participate in official team activities, including tryouts until all required forms are turned in.
In order for our physicians to sign the form for the 2020-2021 school year, the athlete must have had a full physical exam, including athletic screening. Please check with our office well in advance of your deadline (see below) to be sure that these requirements have been met. Please plan on a 48-hour turnaround for form completion.
WIAA deadlines for forms:
Note: your school may have earlier deadlines; please check with your athletic office.
