Attention Port Jervis Athletes: Sign up Now for Varsity & JV Fall Sports

PHYSICAL EXAMINATION REQUIREMENTS

Varsity & JV Fall Sports (high school grades 9–12) are scheduled to begin on Monday, August 23, 2021.  Modified Sports (middle school grades 7 & 8) are scheduled to begin on Thursday, September 2, 2021.

Students wanting to participate in athletics during the 2021-2022 school year must have an up-to-date physical. The physical examination for qualifying a student's participation in interscholastic athletics is valid for a period of 12 continuous months - through the last day of the month in which the exam was conducted; and through the entire sports season, even if the exam's expiration is before the season is completed.  Therefore, a student must have a valid physical examination dated August 1, 2020, or later, in order to participate in Fall Varsity & JV Sports or dated September 1, 2020, or later, in order to participate in Fall Modified Sports.  Before participation in each athletic season, all parents must complete an interval health history for athletics, unless a physical exam has been completed within 30 days before the start of the season.  This interval health history is part of the registration process on Family ID.
