⚠️ IMPORTANT REMINDER FOR ALL ATHLETES ⚠️
📋 No Physical = No Play!
Before your athlete can step onto the field, they MUST have an updated physical exam on file in the school office.
Please make sure to get these completed and turned in before the first day of practice so your player doesn't miss a single second of the action!
We can't wait to see everyone out on the diamond. Let's make this an amazing season! 🎉

Before the shoes hit the court or the cleats touch the grass, let’s make sure we are officially cleared to play!
As a reminder, all athletes MUST have a completed sports physical on file before participating in any team practices, or official events. No physical = no play, no exceptions.
Don't wait until the day before practice starts when clinics are packed. Slots fill up fast, so schedule your appointments now! 🗓️⏱️
