Sports Physicals - 2023-2024 DIAA Sports Physical
The Delaware Interscholastic Athletic Association (DIAA) mandates that every student must have all papers completed with all signatures, in order to be eligible to try-out and participate in any school-sponsored sport. The physical must be on the DIAA physical form only. No other forms can be substituted. These forms must be turned in and on file with the school nurse. Physicals must be performed yearly and performed after April 1st for the following school year. It is encouraged to get your physical early and not wait until the last minute.
