COVID-19 led the Arizona Interscholastic Association to update its Preparticipation Physical Examination form for student-athletes.
If the document was filed before March, student-athletes will need to refile the form if they are planning to play during the next school year. Seven COVID-19-based questions were added to the form.
Students can’t practice or play with AIA member schools in 2021-22 until schools have the form on file.
“The AIA staff and the executive board are very thankful for the members of the Sports Medicine Advisory Committee for volunteering to meet and put together of our Return to Activity Guidelines forms,” AIA Executive Director David Hines said.
