BEST PRACTICES: Getting Ready For Annual Physical Exams

As we close in on the end of this school year (it'll be over before you know it), most schools are beginning to prepare for next year. Making sure your athletes have a plan for getting a physical exam is probably high on that list.  

There are many different ways schools can encourage athletes to accomplish the task of getting a physical exam.

• Mass physical exams hosted by the school

• Mass physical exams hosted by a nearby hospital or other healthcare facility

• An annual check-up with the student's personal physician

• "Sports Screenings" from local health clinics (typically discounted this time of year)
