IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR ALL DCMS ATHLETES
We are closely monitoring COVID-19 numbers in our community and following all district and state guidelines from the OSSAA, OSDE, and the OK Dept of Health as we move forward with our Athletic Program at DCMS. We need families of students participating in athletics to stay connected with us and closely monitor email moving forward as there will likely be changes. We must all be flexible as we do the best we can to provide athletic opportunities in a safe manner during the 2020-2021 school year.
REQUIRED OF ALL ATHLETES:
(Not playing a sport until winter or spring? You still must do the following this summer!)
All students who participate in athletics are required to obtain a physical and complete several forms. All RankOneSport online forms must be completed and a current physical must be turned in before participation in any sport or offseason workouts.
You cannot fill out the physical form online; it must be hand delivered to your Coach or Athletic Director’s office. You can also scan and email the completed physical form to yohancebrown@dcsok.org.

ATHLETICS PHYSICALS
Having trouble scheduling an appointment with your pediatrician for an athletics physical?Most walk-in clinics in the metro area will conduct physicals, and they are used to performing these all summer long for athletes.
Here is one option:
A message from Immediate Care of Oklahoma:
Immediate Care of Oklahoma is giving back to Oklahoma Schools. We have 6 locations around OKC. We would like to offer to your school a way to to get your athletes their OSSAA Sports Physicals as well as the opportunity for a Pre-Concussion test to start off their athletic season on the right foot!
ICO would like to offer $10 per athlete’s physical we complete for your programs be given back to your school's Athletic Department.
We are offering the OSSAA Sports physicals at all 6 of our locations for $25. (Athletes - please tell us your school at check-in to get credit for school’s Athletic donation/fundraiser)
In addition, the student can add on the ImPact Baseline Concussion test for $10. It has been used from elementary-aged athletes to the NFL to test, treat, and safely return athletes back to play. The student will walk away with their test results and will also be put into Immediate Care's database so that if a concussion is suspected at later date, the athlete can return to one of our clinics for post-injury concussion screen and testing, to get your athlete treated, and then safely and quickly returned to play. These are also offered at all 6 of our locations.
