What is a sports physical?
Sports physical examinations can help detect some health problems that could interfere with performance, and help ensure the safety of your child while playing sports.
Why does your child need a sports physical?

During the sports physical exam, the provider will review your child or teen’s medical history and look for conditions or injuries that could potentially make it unsafe to participate in sports. This is a great opportunity to discuss with the provider ways your athlete may be prone to injury so they may suggest tips to avoid future issues.

When and how often do I need to get my child a sports physical?

Sports physical examinations should be completed annually. We recommend having the physical completed a few weeks before the season begins so there will be plenty of time to follow-up if necessary.

What do I need to bring for a sports physical?

Be sure to have these items with you when you come in with your child for a sports or camp physical:

  1. Drivers license, or other form of personal identification
  2. Sports or camp physical form

We recommend bringing a list of medications your child is taking, information regarding previous surgeries or injuries, or other illnesses we may need to be aware of in order to complete the examination.
