Spring Sports Information (Updated, 3/24/25)

 

All student-athletes must follow the process below before being eligible to participate for a spring sports team:

1. Parents need to complete the required on-line registration process at here https://johnstark-nh.finalforms.com/ even if you played a fall and/or winter sport. Spring registration is open.
2. All freshman and juniors playing a Spring Sport must take the ImPACT Concussion test if you did not take it this fall or winter. Any Sophomores or Seniors that did not take an ImPACT test this current or last school year must take one this Spring. Dates the ImPACT Test will be given on the following dates and times: For those student athletes in need of an impact test prior to the start of the upcoming spring sports season please contact our athletic director to set up a time to complete this requirement. Communication will come out soon for scheduled testing dates/times. Also before you can take the ImPACT test your parents must have completed the required online registration process as described above.
3. When the online registration process has been completed as described above Mr. Brown will check your eligibility in terms of academics.  I will be using your 2^nd quarter snapshot grades to determine your eligibility.  You must have a passing grade in at least 5 classes on your 2^nd quarter report card. If you are passing 4 classes you will need to see Mr. Brown about applying for an Academic Eligibility Probation Waiver in order to possibly be eligible to play.
4. In addition in order to be eligible to play, you must have a current physical on file with the nurse and be cleared to participate by the athletic trainer.  Physicals are considered good for 13 months from the date of exam for all students. Please remember the date mentioned above is the date of your actual exam by your doctor, not the date the form may have been printed by the doctor’s office.  Parents are encouraged to take advantage of the ability to upload a copy of their child’s most recent physical onto the Finalforms website so there will be no delay in being cleared to participate. 
5. If you played a winter sport, you will not be cleared until all uniforms and/or equipment has been returned to your coach and the coach notifies the athletic director everything has been returned.

 

Once your parents have completed the online registration process as discussed above and you have met all the other eligibility requirements listed above you will be cleared for participation. You cannot participate until cleared by the Athletic Department on Final Forms. 

 

You will be contacted through the Final Forms website to inform you if the student-athlete is cleared to participate or not.  If an athlete is not cleared the reason why will be provided.
