BUHSD Winter Sports Update
The Winter Sports Season will be starting, Monday, December 7, 2020 for Buckeye Union High School District. This will be the official start date for all practices/tryouts, and competition will begin on January 5, 2021. There are some pretty significant changes currently in place for Winter Sports. Below are those changes, along with a refresher of our normal requirements for participation in Interscholastic Sports in the Buckeye Union High School District.
Eligibility to start practice on Monday, December 7th:
- Student Athlete must have a valid physical on file with the Athletic Office
- If your student-athlete played a sport for one of our teams last year and did not suffer a concussion or injury that required clearance to play, they do not need a new physical. We will use last years physicals per the AIA rule put in place for this year.
- If you are a new student, Freshman, or did not play a sport at one of our BUHSD schools last year, you will need to get a physical.
- Student Athlete must have all forms completed on Rank One
- You can find the instructions and required physical forms on our school or district website under the Athletics tab (Athletic Packet Link)
- Brain Book and Opioid Courses need to be completed
- If your student-athlete played a sport last year or in the Fall they already have the Brain Book done and do not need to take that course again.
- All student athletes will need to complete the new Opioid Course
Practice Requirements:
- All student athletes always need to wear a mask while on campus including during practice.
- Coaches are also expected to wear masks at all times and at no time should their mask be removed from their nose and mouth.
- They will be permitted to take off their mask during high intensity activities/conditioning.
- Student Athletes need to bring their own gallon of water to practice
- Student Athletes need to come to practice dressed and ready for practice. We will not provide locker rooms at this time.
