Sports Physical FAQ

What does my child need in order to play sports at JP Case?

Your child needs a current physical examination on the New Jersey State physical forms filled out and taken to the doctor on your scheduled appointment date. This includes but is not limited to; the entire 'History Form' completed, including all "Yes" answers explained, the entire 'Physical Examination' page completed including an eye exam with a passing visual acuity score done by your physician or eye doctor, and the entire 'Clearance Form' completed with a signature and stamp from your physician and their office.

Please submit the Medical Eligibility Form (from your doctor) to the school.  Do not submit a copy of the entire physical form.

How can I turn in my forms?

We will not be accepting physical forms sent electronically. Please hand in a hard copy of all necessary forms to the main office during the summer months. Please keep a copy for your own records.

What if my child's physical falls after the cutoff date?

If your child's physical appointment falls after the cut-off date for sports registration and it cannot be moved to an earlier date, don't sweat! Here's what you need to do: register on Family ID, hand in the physical they currently have, as well as the Health History Questionnaire. Communicate with us when your child's physical will be so that we know they are interested in playing a sport, and we can follow up with you!  Be sure to submit the updated paperwork a.s.a.p to avoid any further delay in the tryout process.

My child played sports for JP Case last year. Do I need to hand in anything?

YES! Your child needs current documents to play sports at JP Case! The Health History Questionnaire must be completed for each season, and a physical is only valid for 365 days. 

My child already took the ImPACT test. Do they need to do it again?

NO! The ImPACT test is valid for 2 years; student-athletes will only need to take 1 baseline exam during their time at JP Case.
