Can’t play without one.

Sports physicals are required for high school and middle school athletes, and are something every parent needs to stay on top of when monitoring their athletes.

For those in need, the Wildcat Booster Club up in Oak Harbor is offering a one-stop experience June 14.

While the event is a fundraiser for OHHS athletic programs, it’s open to all, potentially benefitting Coupeville athletes in need.

It’s go time.

With the start of fall football practice just six days out, Coupeville has set Wednesday, Aug. 17 as its fall sports registration day for middle and high school athletes.

The event runs from 12-5 PM in the CHS/CMS library.

The high school offers volleyball, girls and boys soccer, cross country, boys tennis, and football in the fall, with CMS fielding volleyball, cross country and (possibly) boys soccer.

Players and parents can submit new sports physicals, pay athletic and ASB fees, as well as complete applications for free and reduced food service.

Physicals are good for two years in Washington state, unless otherwise noted by the doctor.

With the schools moving much of the paperwork online, all student athletes need to have an account set up through the Final Forms link, which is here:

Get ahead of the paperwork curve.

Coupeville High School and Middle School athletes can get all their forms filled out and fees paid before practice begins at an athletic paperwork day Tuesday, August 17.

The event runs from 12-5 PM at the CHS office.

Attendance is not mandatory, as athletes can also obtain paperwork by emailing Lisa Yoder (lyoder@coupeville.k12.wa.us) or Barbi Ford (bford@coupeville.k12.wa.us).

Forms to be completed, with student and parent signatures, include the Athletic/Activities form, Extra-Curricular/Athletic Participant Eligibility form, and the Free/Reduced lunch form.

All athletes need a sports physical as well.

Physicals cover two years, and you can check your status on the school’s Skyward site. It’s under the Health Info button on the left.

ASB and fall athletic fees, which need to be handled prior to the first game, can be paid during this event or online through the eFunds link on Skyward.

CHS plays volleyball, boys tennis, football, co-ed cross country, and boys and girls soccer in the fall, while CMS offers cross country, volleyball, and boys soccer.

You only need to get poked and prodded every other year.

District 1, which includes Coupeville, has opted to move to requiring high school and middle school athletes get a new physical every two years.

Previously, a new one was needed every year.

“If you got a physical last year and participated in athletics, either at the middle or high school, it will be good again this year,” said CHS/CMS Athletic Director Willie Smith.

With the change, Wolf athletes and parents need to stay on top of their paperwork.

“That is also why it’s VERY IMPORTANT that you sign up on the form I sent (athletes), as well as get your paperwork in,” Smith said. “We can then reference and crosscheck the status of your physical and let you know whether or not you need a new one.

“We did this for a few reasons. The first is we didn’t know how difficult it would be for students to get into the doctors office/clinic to get a physical this year with all that’s going on.

“The shortness of time between the announcement of the start of our season is very tight, and lastly, the WIAA allows for a two-year physical and this aligns us with both South Whidbey and Oak Harbor.”

With everything topsy-turvy thanks to the pandemic, Smith stressed the importance of everyone responding, quickly, to emails sent out by school officials.

If a parent or guardian didn’t receive an athletic packet and signature forms last week, they can obtain one by emailing Barbi Ford (bford@coupeville.k12.wa.us) or Lisa Yoder (lyoder@coupeville.k12.wa.us).

Athletes also need to return the form sent out asking which sports they intend to play this school year, if COVID allows games to happen.

“As much as we need the paperwork from your parents/guardians, we also need this information (from athletes) for our planning purposes as well as the coaches planning purposes,” Smith said.

Last, but not least, stay on top of your grades, even at a time when most are doing school work online.

“We are holding our students to the same standard of attendance and academics as we would in a regular year,” Smith said.

“With the start of the second semester beginning next week, it is extremely important that if your planning on participating in athletics you get started off on the right foot and stay up to date and on top of your grades.

“We have systems in place to assist those students that may need help with grades, as we have always done, but it really is important that students start and maintain strong attendance and grades the remainder of the year.”
