West Hills High School Athletic Clearance Process
Welcome to the Online Clearance Process Guide. Here you will find the directions to complete the clearance process to participate in athletics and activities; please review both portions of the clearance process. A PARENT must create an account at AthleticClearance.com to clear their student athletes. You will need to create a "new clearance" for each sport you participate in, every year. Do not print out the consent form from a previous season as you will NOT be cleared without entering "new clearance" information, even if you have already participated in that sport in a prior season.
Online Clearance Portion
Online clearance must be completed for each sport you intend to participate in this year.

COVID Waiver & Physical Form Portion
Physicals are required annually and must be valid throughout the entire season of your sport - if your physical expires mid-season, you will no longer be cleared to participate until an updated physical is received in the office. The physical can not be completed by a Chiropractor, Physician's Assistant, or Nurse Practitioner (PA and NP are accepted only if the form is also signed by a MD or DO) and must be completed in California. Please have the facility stamp the form with valid contact information & Doctor's name.

NOTE: All clearance forms are reviewed by WHHS Staff prior to approval. Students will be required to clear for each sport individually. You can maintain multiple students with the same parent account.
Thank you.
