ATHLETIC PARTICIPATION REQUIREMENTS

UPDATED PROCEDURES FOR THE 2020-2021 SCHOOL YEAR

Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the Nebraska State Athletic Association (NSAA) has made some adjustments to the Pre-Participation Physical Examinations (PPE) requirement for the upcoming school year. Additionally, we are unable to offer physicals at Prep on August 2 as originally planned. Please read the updated requirements and procedures below.

NSAA Physical Exam Requirements

• All incoming freshmen must have a physical dated May 1, 2020 or later. 

• All sophomores, juniors and seniors who currently have a physical on file from last year (2019-2020) do NOT need a new physical. 

• All sophomores, juniors and seniors who did not participate in sports last year and do not have a physical on file must have a new physical dated May 1, 2020 or later. 

• The physical needs to be on file in the High School Office prior to the first practice. For the fall sports season, physicals must be turned in prior to August 10.

Prep Procedures for Submitting the PPE

• Ask your physician to complete the physical examination form. 

• Families also can use a form provided by the physician.

• Return the completed form to the High School Office.

• Review the athletic participation information in the Student-Parent Handbook.
