Sports Physical Packet
Health history update form (90-day form)
Please read the following information
In order to participate in a school sport, the student must be signed up for the sport and attend the pre-sport meeting. Please have the student see the nurse to see which form is needed if they are unsure. Physicals are good for one year (365 calendar days). A current physical must be on file in the nurse's office. If you are planning to participate in a sport and have had a physical that is current, you still need to fill out a Health History Update and a Permission Slip. As a result of a State Mandate, requirements for sports physicals have changed. Students must have their physical performed by their own private physician and the doctor must have completed the NJ State cardiac module. For students without medical insurance, please contact the school nurse.
Please note the following important information regarding sports physicals.
- All physicals must be completed using the forms mandated by the State of NJ.
- History questionnaire, to be completed by parent/guardian and student and reviewed by the doctor completing the physical. Make sure that the page is signed by a parent/guardian.
- If any question is answered "Yes", please explain in the section provided as to when and what.
- For ANY cardiac conditions, please include cardiac clearance from a specialist.
- Vision must be documented and if the student's vision is worse than 20/40, an eye doctor must be seen before the sports form is submitted. If your child has glasses please bring them to the doctor's appointment.
- Physical Examination Form and Clearance Form to be completed by the physician/health care provider. This form must have the physician’s signature and stamp on it.
- No other forms will be accepted. For example, the Universal Child Health Record is not the correct form.
- All physicals must be reviewed by the school physician, per regulation. Therefore, they must be submitted by the assigned school deadline.
- Please schedule your child's appointment in order to meet the DEADLINES.
- Late paperwork may cause a delay in participation.
