Common use of Physical Clause in Contracts

Physical. Students participating in athletics must have a physical examination a minimum of every other year. A green colored WIAA Examination Permit Card will be used the year that an athlete is required to have a physical. April 1 is the earliest date a student can get a physical for it to count for the following school year. In the years when a physical is not required, an alternative year card is to be completed. The purpose of the alternative year card is for parents to attest to the fact that the athlete in question has not been hospitalized or has not had a serious injury or illness since the previous year's physical examination card was filed. If there has been a serious injury or illness, or if hospitalization has been required, an athlete will be required to have physician clearance to return to sports. Athletes are not allowed to practice or compete until the Examination Permit Card (physical form or alternate year card) is on file.
