A filled-in DIAA Pre-participation Physical Evaluation and Consents example: a parent fills in page one

DIAA Pre-participation Physical Evaluation and Consents example filled out, example: a parent fills in page one
A parent fills in page one of the DIAA form for a student. The athlete is 15, in grade 10, and the parent checks only golf. The picture shows page one filled in; its names and figures are sample values. Golf is the one sport the parent does not permit, so the rest of Parent/Guardian consents: sports not checked stays empty. Nothing goes in Medicines and Allergies because the athlete takes none and has no allergies, and Signature of athlete and parent/guardian is left blank because page two is not part of this example.
