Eligibility

Eligibility to Play Sports

Please note that per Hamilton County Athletic Conference Constitution Article IV, Section 1, a student’s eligibility to play sports will be as follows:

No student repeating a grade will be eligible for participation in athletics during that school year.

Eligibility to participate in fall sports will be determined solely by the previous year’s fourth (4th) nine weeks’ grades. The yearly average has nothing to do with fall sports eligibility. Promotion to the next grade is no longer the determining factor in a student’s ability to participate in fall sports.

Any student who fails 2 or more courses in a quarter (9 weeks) is ineligible to play any sport for the following quarter (9 weeks).

Sports Physicals

Below are the necessary forms that must be completed before a student participates in any athletic activity in Hamilton Schools. A student must have a current physical (after April 15th of the previous school year to be considered current) on file with the Coach of the sport. In addition, a current “Parental Consent to Treat” form must also be on file in conjunction with an up-to-date “Concussion”, and “Sudden Cardiac” Forms. If you are a home school student who chooses to compete at the school for which you would be zoned; you will need to complete the “Home School” Form and have received District level approval prior to participating.

Homeschool Students:

A physical will be required along with immunization. You will need to contact the Equity Office for additional information and requirements.
