Physical exams are offered by the school once, prior to each sports season, in the months of August, October, and January.

Student athletes must abide by the Athletic Code as set forth by the school. Signatures of both parent and student are required as acceptance of the Code. Code books shall be provided by team coaches prior to each league season.
 

Interscholastic athletic competition should demonstrate high standards of ethics and sportsmanship and promote the development of good character and other important life skills. The highest potential of sports is achieved when participants are committed to pursuing victory with honor according to six core principles: trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring, and good citizenship. This Code applies to all student-athletes involved in interscholastic sports in California.

• Discourage any dishonest or unsportsmanlike conduct

A prerequisite of good sportsmanship requires one to understand their own bias or prejudice and to have the ability to recognize that rational behavior is more important than the desire to win. A proper perspective must be maintained if the potential educational values of athletic competition are to be realized. Good sportsmanship is concerned with the behavior of all involved in the game.

Informed Consent/Assumption of Risk

Parents and students need to be aware of the potential dangers of participation in interscholastic athletics since there is a risk of being injured in any sport. The risk of injury may be severe, including varieties of fractures, sprains, contusions, brain injuries, paralysis, or even death. Risk of injury may be somewhat reduced through parent insistence upon student-athletes following carefully all of the guidelines given by the coaching staff and school regarding training rules, safety procedures, proper use of equipment, legal and safe playing techniques, and any and all other safety procedures.

Please see the Student Handbook for further information, requirements and limitations.
