Sports Medicine Registration 2:30 -3:30 

All student-athletes must check in with Dr. Wagner (AT) and Nurse Wiesel at the Sports Medicine Registration table outside Feringa before practices begin at 3:30, so please arrive by 3:00 to ensure a timely start. Parents with questions for Dr. Wagner and Nurse Wiesel are encouraged to come earlier in the 2:30-3:30 registration window. 

Student records will be checked to ensure that parents have completed all athletics consent forms in Magnus, that you have a current physical on file, and that your ImPACT Baseline Test is up-to-date. Students will not be able to practice until these forms/consents have been completed and you have checked in at the table.

Team practices start at 3:30.
