2023-2024 Upper Perkiomen Athletic Registrations

The Athletic Department utilizes Student Central for athletic registrations and form submissions.  This online registration platform will allow students and families in grades 7-12 to register for sports, complete all required athletic department forms and  also confirm that you have completed all required steps in order for your child to start participation in a Fall, Winter or Spring sport.

REMINDER: ATHLETIC PHYSICALS MUST BE COMPLETED ON OR AFTER JUNE 1ST.

Please take a moment to click on and read the following links listed below.  These links will provide more information on how to sign your child up for any sports during the 2023-2024 school year as well as how to submit all required forms.  Students and parents who created accounts in the past should use the same account they already created - please do not create a new account.  If you cannot access your parent or student account, please email the Athletic Office so we can reset your account and send you the login information so duplicate accounts are not created .  7th grade students (Class or 2029) or students who did not ever participate in a sport at Upper Perkiomen School District should follow the BigTeams Student Central Account Creation Directions to create a new parent and student account.

Students registering for their first sport of the year will need to sign/initial sections 1, 3, 4 and 5, Student-Athlete Code of Conduct, Upper Perkiomen Athletic Participation Form, Upper Perkiomen Athletic Emergency Form, St. Luke's Consent to Treat Patient Form and St. Luke's HIPPA Privacy Authorization Form.  Parents/Guardians registering for their child's first sport of the year will need to sign/initial all sections and forms.  Students and parents/guardians who are completing a re-certification for subsequent seasons will both need to sign/initial Section 7 and submit Section 8 if they student saw a doctor for an injury or illness during the previous sport season/s.  (Section 7 and 8 will only show prior to the start of the Winter and Spring seasons)

*Please note that while all forms are completed and submitted online, you will need to print out Section 5 (Health History) and Section 6 (Doctor's Physical Form) in order to be able to have a doctor complete the physical form.  To print Section 5 and blank Section 6: After completing Section 5, click on the "Print Version Here" link that is found at the top of the Section 5 form.  This will print all of your answers to Section 5 Health History as well as a blank Section 6 form to take to the doctor.  A blank Section 6 (doctor's) form can also be downloaded and printed by clicking on the link at the bottom of this page, but most doctors will also require the completed Section 5 Health History form to be presented during the physical exam.  Anyone attending physicals at school or at any St. Luke's location must bring a completed Section 5 form along with the blank Section 6 form with you to the sport physical.

Registration for all students in grades 7-12 will be open on Tuesday, May 23rd.  All students are asked to complete the online registration by July 1, 2023 for any sports they plan on participating in during the 2023-24 school year.  Physical forms (Section 6) can be uploaded after July 1st as needed, but having all other information in the system by then will help our coaching staff and athletic office staff plan and contact team members as needed during the summer and school year.  While there will be opportunity to change which sports youth child signs up for leading up to each season, we ask that everyone completes the online registration process during the month of June.  If you wish to change which sports your child plans on participating in, all you have do to is check or uncheck any of the sports under their account profile. 

Deadlines for all forms to be submitted on Student Central each season will be:

Fall Season - August 3, 2023

Winter Season - November 9, 2023

Spring Season - February 22, 2024

If you have any questions regarding the signup process, the form submissions, or need technology help in doing so, please contact a member of the athletic department staff.  Appointments can be scheduled with the student and parent to complete this process in the Athletic Office, as needed.
