PLANETHS (Student Central) -

A physical examination is required by PIAA for an athlete to be eligible to participate in an interscholastic sport.  The physical must be completed after June 1st for fall sports participation and will be effective, regardless of when it is performed during the school year until, the next May 31st.

For Winter and Spring Sports: A reexamination or re-certification is required for each subsequent sports season if the student (a) suffers an illness or injury which renders the student unable to participate in 25% or more of the Regular Season Contests in the immediately preceding sports season; and/or (b) suffers an illness or injury which resulted in absence from school for ten (10) or more days and/or which requires surgery.
