IHSAA Physicals 2016-2017 School Year
Please see the following message from the IHSAA regarding physical examinations for the 16-17 school year.
In collaboration with the Committee on Sports Medicine, which is an arm of the Indiana State Medical Association, the new IHSAA form now requires the original signature of a physician (MD or DO) in addition to their license number for validity. A pre-stamped, or facsimile signature is unacceptable. This new requirement is the direct result of an effort to protect your student athletes. The abuses which were brought to the attention of the Committee on Sports Medicine by member schools, pediatricians, and family medicine providers included pre-stamped physicals completed in non-medical facilities. We would ask that you review the new form in advance of distribution to your student-athletes. The added cover page offers a concise, specific level of instruction with respect to the expected process of completing the physical form. Finally, the new form is not to be altered in any fashion. Any alteration renders the form invalid.
The new IHSAA Physical form can be found here, or on the athletic web site.
