Summer has gone by quickly and the preseason for fall sports is right around the corner. Are you ready for your tryouts? 
In order to participate in tryouts, you must be registered on FamilyID and have uploaded an up-to-date copy of your physical to your registration. AACS has a 13 month policy for physicals. Make sure your physical has been completed and signed by a doctor within the last 13 months. If your physical expires during the season, you will need to get a new one before the expiration date to ensure you can continue playing your sport. Once the new physical is complete, you will need to upload that new physical to the FamilyID registration.
If you are a male high school transfer student, you will need to complete the MIAA Eligibility Verification Form (EVF). Along with the EVF, you will need to provide a copy of either a passport, government issued ID, or birth certificate as proof of age. The EVF and proof of age must be completed and returned to the athletic office. The athletic department will submit these to the league. EVF's should be turned in before the first day of tryouts.
It is always recommended that you reach out to the coach of the sport you are trying out for. Let them know you are interested in playing and ask any questions you may have. The coach can provide more specific details on tryouts and the upcoming season.
