Happy Monday Warrior families!
Well as I mentioned last week, there will be lots more information re: ALL Back To School Information--today we talk Fall Sports. We are moving forward with an anticipated August 10th start date for practices and tryouts (if applicable).
All COVID precautions that have been in place this summer will continue. If you have COVID symptoms, are exposed to someone who has COVID please STAY HOME.Bring a mask to wear and social distance at all times.
PLEASE READ ON FOR VERY IMPORTANT, TIME SENSITIVE INFORMATION. DEADLINE FOR PHYSICALS TO BE UPLOADED TO DRAGONFLY IS AUGUST 10TH.
Please contact Courtney with all physical or DragonFly questions and your coach with any SPX practice or tryout questions. Their contact information is listed below.
Physicals and playing Fall Sports:
MSHSAA requires sports physicals to be able to participate in athletics. All MSHSAA requirements will be completed online using Dragonflymax.com where you and your son/daughter will e-sign and upload documents. This allows the coaches and athletic trainer to access medical information quickly if needed, as well as, allow you to keep up to date with any medical treatment your son/daughter is receiving at the school.
If you do not have an account, you will need to make one. Please go to dragonflymax.com to create one. When prompted, the school code is QK5BK8. If you created an account last year, you will need to log back into that account. Please do not create a new account if you do not have to.
Once you are logged in, you will see the requirements needed for the 2020-2021 school year. The physical examination form from your physician is valid for two years unless noted otherwise. The system will reflect this. The remaining documents need to be done annually. For those returning, you will see "waiting on admin approval" this is an error in the system. Please click on it and "fill out another electronic copy". The only document that gets approved by the admin is the physical examination form.
Fall sports athletes must complete all the paperwork for sports physicals prior to practice on Monday, August 10th. They are not allowed to practice if the paperwork is incomplete. Please try to get this done as soon as possible to allow coaches and athletic trainer time to review and prepare for any medical conditions that your son/daughter might have.
If you are in need of a baseline concussion ImPACT testing. We will finish testing the week of August 10th. This does not need to be done prior to practicing, we just want to get it done as soon as possible.
If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to Courtney Wohlwend at cwohlwend@spxkc.org
