Athletic Physical Form PDF Details

The Athletic Physical Form (AT-001-13, Revised 05/08/2012) is the official Arlington Independent School District (Arlington I.S.D.) document required for student-athlete participation. It ensures every student meets the University Interscholastic League (UIL) health requirements before joining a school sport. This document covers three main areas: a complete physical examination, a medical history review, and a parental or guardian consent section. By requiring this paperwork, the school district upholds fair play and athlete safety as defined by UIL standards.

A physician must complete the physical exam section and record the student's height, weight, vision, body fat percentage, and overall physical condition. The medical history section asks about past illnesses, surgeries, hospitalizations, head injuries, and family health history. Parents must sign the consent section to acknowledge UIL rules and authorize emergency medical care. For contact sports such as football, this form includes specific language about physical contact risks. The completed document must be on file at the school before the student's first practice or competition of the season.

Step 5: Preparticipation Physical Exam

A licensed physician completes the preparticipation physical exam section during the student's medical appointment. The doctor records height, weight, body fat percentage, and vision results for both eyes. Normal and abnormal physical findings are listed with physician initials. The examining physician must sign and date this section. Many school districts require the physical exam to be performed no more than 12 months before the start of the sports season.
