Sports Participation
“New” Digital Sports Participation Packet
The ACIT Sports Participation Packet, including the sports physical, is to be completed by the parent and the student-athlete prior to the sports season.
Completion will require that you:
-
Go to www.Aktivate.com to register your student for their sports and to complete the Digital Sports Participation Packet.
-
Only one sports participation packet is required per school year, indicating all the sports of interest.
-
You will need to download the Sports Physical portion to take to the student athlete’s physician. The doctors office staff will need to complete the information required in these documents. Doctor must be an MD, DO, Nurse practitioner, or Physician's Assistant. No chiropractors or other medical professionals.
-
You will need to download and submit a completed Health History Questionnaire (HHQ). The HHQ expires 90 days after its initial receipt. The state requires a valid HHQ prior to the start of any sport participation. As an example: a three sport athlete may need to submit 3 HHQ’s, in one school year, one for each season.
-
Physical exams are typically valid for one year from date of exam, the sports physical may need to be updated sometime during the year, the nurse will accept and approve these as they are received.
-
Physical exam and HHQ paperwork can be turned in to the main office or to the nurses in both the south wing and the main building.
Please go to www.Aktivate.com to register your student for any sport and to complete the Digital Sports Participation Packet.
