2. Complete the physical exam at one of our Memorial Medical Group offices. You can schedule a free sports exam with your child’s provider by following these steps: Your child must be an established patient of the Memorial practice, the sports exam must be scheduled and completed by July 31. Call your provider’s office directly to schedule an appointment. Appointments are required. Note: If your athlete has had their health check or physical exam within the last 12 months, the provider may be able to complete the sports physical exam paperwork for you. Call the office to discuss next steps, as this can take 24-72 hours. A sports physical exam can be scheduled outside of the free physical exam window for a $25 fee. Call your provider’s office to schedule an appointment.

FOR ALL 3 OPTIONS:

The pre-participation sports medical examination is not intended to replace regular or necessary visits to your student-athlete’s treating physician.

We encourage you to schedule an appointment with your health care team. Parents/guardians must complete the Ohio High School Athletic Association (OHSAA) Pre-Participation Physical Examination Form prior to the physical. Forms can be obtained from your school’s athletic department or by visiting memorialohio.com/physical.

Parents are encouraged to attend the physical exam with their student athlete. The physical exam can only be conducted if the paperwork has been completed/signed by a parent or if a parent is present.
