Physicians Note

In order to provide quality care for our student athletes, we do our best to work along side doctors and other health care professionals. If your son/daughter is seeing or is going to see a physician for an injury, we need a note clearing them for participation. If they do not have a note, they will be unable to practice or compete. If a note has the athlete out, they will be out from everything. If the doctor can be more specific to what the athlete can and  can not do that is best. For example the athlete may not run or jump but is ok to participate in all upper body activities. It is also important to have an end date on the note. For example this note is valid for two weeks or this note is valid until MM/DD/YYYY. That way you can avoid going back to the physician a second time for a clearance note. It is important that we have this communication to protect our athletes from further injury as well as enhance our rehabilitation capabilities. Thanks.
