OCPS Sports Physical Packet 2023-2024!!
Middle School Level has optional EKG Exam for this calendar year.
- Each student that participates in athletics needs to have the OCPS SPORTS PHYSICAL PACKET completely filled out by a parent/guardian and a Doctor prior to try outs. School Physicals are not the same as a sports physical. A sports physical is good for one calendar year from date of the physical. A blank OCPS PHYSICAL PACKET can be picked up in the main office or either PE locker room or downloaded above.
- You must have a cumulative 2.0 grade point average from previous middle school years. Incoming 6th graders are already eligible for soccer and volleyball.
- A student who reaches the age of 15 before September 1st will be ineligible for athletics at the middle school level.
- There is only one girl’s team and one boy’s team for each sport: Which means there will be a combination of 6th, 7th and 8th graders trying out for each team. Both teams play on the same day, during the week at the same site.
- Practices are usually every day and could be before or after school depending on the coach.
- There are no fees for being on the team. However, if they do make the team, we do have the players purchase a team spirit shirt specific to that sport to wear on game day to school.
