Physical examinations must be completed by a personal family physician. We must have a current and valid physical (no more than 365 days old) on file for clearance to participate in summer workouts and the strength & conditioning program starting on 6/16/25.
Examination forms given to your private physician must be completely filled out. The physicians office will retain the Physical Forms. The Athletic PPE Eligibility form is required to submit to the school. It is crucial to indicate the grade your child is entering in September of 2025 on the Athletic PPE Medical Eligibility form and the sports they would like to participate in. Please do not fill out and submit a form that will be older than one year prior to the start of the first sports season your student-athlete will participate in. Older physicals with outdated information will only delay in having your child physically cleared to participate.
In order to be guaranteed clearance for fall sports the forms must be submitted no later than Friday, 7/25/25.
The required forms must be completed and submitted in the one of following manner:
MAIL- to River Dell High School, Attn: Denis Nelson, Athletic Director, 55 Pyle Street, Oradell, NJ 07649.
SCAN- scan and email them to [email protected]. They must be clear and legible to be accepted.
Please do not bring the forms to the school and do not fax them to the school. Do not attempt to give the forms to any coaches as they are not permitted to accept them. Your compliance with this procedure will insure accuracy and expedite the process of officially clearing the student to participate. If a physical form is not completely filled out and signed it will be sent back to you and your student-athlete(s) will NOT be cleared. All athletes must practice a minimum of 6 days before participating in scrimmages as per NJSIAA rules.
We look forward to your child’s participation next year. Thank you for your attention to this important and state required procedure.
