IHSAA Rule 3-10 requires an Indiana student-athlete to have a physical exam between April 1 and the first practice, with a completed Consent and Release Certificate filed with the principal. The five-page IHSAA form, based on the 2019 preparticipation physical evaluation, combines the history, the physical exam, a summary of eligibility rules and the consent and release certificate.
A physician (MD or DO), nurse practitioner or physician assistant licensed in Indiana completes the page 3 physical examination and signs it with a license number. The student and parents complete the history and sign pages 2 and 5.
