Every school year parents must submit athletic papers for a student to participate in a school sport. You do this at the DCIAA Portal (https://www.thedciaa.com/participation-forms).

Please submit your SY2024-25 forms now.

If your student played on a team last school year (SY2023-24) you must submit new forms for them to participate this year (SY2024-25).

If your student did not play on a school team in SY2023-24 but she plans to try out / play on a school team in SY2024-25, you must submit new papers.

2024 Fall sports begin the first week of school. Your athlete will not be placed on a roster until her forms are submitted and cleared.

Three forms comprise the Participation Packet:

1. Consent for Athletic Participation
2. Student-Athlete Data & Emergency Treatment Information
3. Concussion & Sudden Cardiac Arrest Information.

You also will be prompted to upload a current Universal Health Certificate (UHC) representing a physical that was conducted within the past calendar year.

If your student’s UHC is valid and in the DCIAA system because he played a sport in SY2023-24, you do not need to upload that same UHC. BUT YOU DO NEED TO SUBMIT A 2024-25 PARTICIPATION PACKET. Later, when that student gets a new physical and corresponding UHC, please go to www.thedciaa.com and re-submit the 2024-25 Participation Packet (it will autofill) along with the updated UHC.

To submit forms, go to www.thedciaa.com Select “Athletes”, then “Participation Forms”, then “MS/ES Participation Packet”. Fill out the Participation Packet online, then submit it along with a pdf of the current UHC. When doing so, please keep scrolling down to select Oyster-Adams when prompted for Athletic Director and Athletic Trainer.

DCIAA informed the Trainers in March 2024 that (as was always the case) parents must fully complete these forms and leave nothing unanswered. Parents must complete and sign Part 1 of the UHC AND they must completely fill out the AT-13, AT-14, & Concussion forms.

DCIAA has already rejected several submissions since March. There can be no blanks other than those allowed by checking a related “N/A” box.

Often omitted but required information includes the following:

Often omitted but required information includes the following:

• Emergency Form (AT-14)
  • Two emergency contacts
  • Complete health insurance information, including policy number, insurer phone number, policy effective date...
• Universal Health Certificate (UHC)
  • Complete Part 1 (every blank) and sign/date, including health insurance information
  • Doctor office must complete Parts 2-4, including date of health exam in Part 2, check yes box in Part 4 for “This child is cleared for competitive sports”, doctor office stamp in Part 4, and doctor or nurse practitioner must sign and date.

A physician, nurse practitioner, or doctor of osteopathy must perform the physical and sign the required forms. DCIAA does not accept physicals conducted by others, e.g., physician’s assistants and nurses. Moreover, nurses or physician’s assistants cannot sign the UHC for the doctor, nurse practitioner, or doctor of osteopathy.

CVS Minute Clinic and other walk-in clinics perform sports physicals. If you go that route, please print out a blank UHC from the Portal, fill out Part 1 and sign, and take it with you for the doctor to complete.
