Physicals Information and Forms
Physicals & RankOne System
General Information
- The PIAA requires that all athletes receive a physical each year after May 1 and that the physical be completed on the PIAA Comprehensive Initial Preparticipation Evaluation (CIPPE) form. No other physical forms are acceptable. Any physical completed by your primary care physician or other outside school doctors before this date is not valid for the 2024-2025 school year.
- Spring Grove uses RankOne, an online platform for sports physical information. NO paper copies of the information in the RankOne system will be accepted.
- The only hard copy of paperwork required to be submitted to the Athletic Office is PIAA Sections 5 and 6 Health History and the Medical Examiner pages to take to the doctor's office to be completed.
- The information in the RankOne system must be completed and the physical forms (PIAA Sections 5 and 6) must be filled out by a physician and handed in BEFORE the first day of tryouts/practice.
- The PIAA also stipulates that a physical or a re-certification be completed no more than six weeks before the official start of the sports season (fall, winter, spring).
- If your child plays sports in multiple seasons during the school year, you must re-certify their physical information in the RankOne system for each season.
Steps:
- Print a hard copy of the PIAA Sections 5 and 6 Health History and the Medical Examiner pages to take to the doctor's office to be completed. Only this physical paperwork from PIAA is acceptable. All other forms will be rejected.
