Who will be the first athlete cleared for the team in 2025?
All Monta Vista athletes can now start the clearance process to participate in sports for the 2025-26 seasons. I suggest you get this out of the way now — you have plenty of time, but if you put this off, then all of a sudden you will be scrambling to get your physical done and all the signatures complete and you and your parents will stress out…so let’s knock this out. You can get on line right away and start the process, and ask your parents to set up the appointment for your physical this month.
All the information you need and the forms you, your parents, and your doctor must complete are on the matador athletics website. (https://matadorathletics.org/interested-in-playing-a-sport/).
I suggest a couple things:
- You can start the clearance process this instant and when you click cross country and file this doc, we know you are planning to join the team this fall! https://www.athleticclearance.com/
- Take thie concussion baseline test now. This is annoying, I don’t know why, but every once in a while there is a problem that needs to be resolved. It’s tedious. Just take a bit of time now or this afternoon and get it out of the way and then you can forget about it for another year! If you have a problem with the test you have plenty of time to ask Mr. Bonacorsi (nick_bonacorsi@fuhsd.org) or Ms Myaesha what to do. https://app.informedk12.com/link_campaigns/concussion-baseline-testing-instructions-and-agreement-2024-mvhs?token=AjtDrbvTpE5V9B3oUZyEJQz1
- Ask your parents to set up an appolntment with your doctor for a sports physical.
- After your physical is done, upload your completed forms to athleticclearance.com .
- Once you have completed ALL 3 of these things–completed your baseline test, uploaded your physical forms, and completed the online registration form–ensure that your status reads “pending”. Once you are “pending” the athletic director, Mr. Bonacorsi, and/or the trainer Ms. Myaesha, will review your account and process your clearance (during summer, this might take a while).
You don’t have to complete all this for summer running, but you do have to complete this before you start practicing with me and the team in August (and go to the beach trip we want to do before school starts!) so please let’s just bang this out now…let’s set a new high bar for getting our registration done early.
I’ll keep track of registrations here!
