ATHLETIC PARTICIPATION FOR THE 2007-2008 SCHOOL YEAR

An athlete must turn in the completed Authorization for Athletic Participation and Medical Information forms to the Athletic Secretary in the front office to obtain a yellow Permit to Practice Card. Forms can be downloaded (click on link below) or picked up at RMHS in the front office.

Once forms have been turned in, a yellow Permit to Practice Card will be issued. A Permit to Practice Card must be obtained before tryouts each season. The athlete turns the permit into the coach. This indicates to the coach that all of the athlete's paperwork is complete and updated. If forms have already been turned in and physical is current, the athlete only needs to see the Athletics Secretary, Rosalyn Seale, to obtain the card.
