ATHLETIC RESPONSIBILITY AND REGISTRATION 2025/2026

Available sports for 8th grade: Cross Country, Cheer, Football, Boys and Girls Basketball, Girls Volleyball, Wrestling, and Track.

A STUDENT SHALL NOT PARTICIPATE IN ANY PRACTICE SESSION OR CONTEST UNTIL THIS ONLINE REGISTRATION FORM HAS BEEN COMPLETED AND A VALID SPORTS PHYSICAL DATED ON OR AFTER APRIL 15, 2025, WITH PHYSICIAN'S SIGNATURE IS PROVIDED.

Athletes must give the required documents to the coach at tryouts or first day of practice/conditioning.

REGISTRATION:

If you have more than one child participating in athletics you are required to register each child separately.

IT IS ONLY NECESSARY TO REGISTER YOUR ATHLETE ONCE PER SCHOOL YEAR.

PAY TO PARTICIPATE:

The Clarkston School District has instituted a pay-to-participate fee for athletics. The fee for the 2025/2026 school year for grades 6th through 8th is currently $200.00.

You can pay your student's pay-to-participate fee online through eFunds, linked at the end of this form. Please print a copy of your eFunds receipt and turn into the coach for payment verification. This fee may also be paid with a check/money order made payable to Clarkston Community Schools and given directly to the coach.

A link to the eFund payment site can also be found on the Clarkston Community Schools Athletics website.

PAY-TO-PARTICIPATE AGREEMENT:

I understand that the fee I am paying does not guarantee playing time or control over any conditions of the team, and is not refundable unless an injury takes place which disallows participation. A doctor’s authorization letter must be submitted with a request for refund. If the injury takes place after the midpoint of the scheduled season, no refund will be granted. I also understand that paying a fee does not alter Clarkston Board of Education Student Policies, Michigan High School Athletic Association regulations, the District Athletic Code, and individual team rules.

ATTENTION: If your athlete registered a sports physical and health appraisal during the summer of 2025 with Community Ed to participate in Chiefs, Football camp(s) or Lacrosse, it is your responsibility to obtain copies and present to the appropriate interscholastic Clarkston Community Schools athletic coach. Fees paid to Community Ed for these programs do not apply to Clarkston Community School’s interscholastic sports teams.

Please provide valid email address below for confirmation of completed registration.

CONSENT FOR TRANSPORTATION

I hereby give my son/daughter, permission to:

Be transported by bus to games, tournaments and competitions when possible.
Leave from athletic contests with a parent, relative, or authorized adult.
Accompany the team as a member on its out-of-town trips.
This authorization is in effect for the entire school year.

I understand that the ability of coaches and other school officials to properly supervise students may be impaired when students are not under their direct control. I agree that coaches should not be held accountable when students who are authorized to use alternative means of transportation do so. I understand that coaches reserve their right to refuse requests by players to leave their teams if, in the coaches’ opinion, it serves the best interest of the individual or the program. I agree to release the Clarkston School District, its employees, and officers from all liability with reference to the above stated transportation.

EQUIPMENT FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

Each athlete in the Clarkston Community Schools is responsible for the athletic equipment issued to them by the Athletic Department. This equipment is to be worn only for practice, coach designated demonstration, or school competitions in the sport for which it was issued. It is not to be worn at other times.

This equipment represents a large expenditure of money by the Athletic Department and is to be returned to the coach upon completion of the sport season (within one week). If the equipment is LOST, STOLEN OR NOT RETURNED, the athlete will be held responsible for the replacement cost of the equipment.

ATHLETIC CODE OF CONDUCT

Clarkston Community Schools firmly believes that, in order to have a successful athletic program, rules must be established that will allow athletes to perform to the best of their ability. Therefore, please review with your son/daughter our Athletic Code of Conduct.

The Athletic Code of Conduct is available online and in the Athletic Office. By electronically signing this online registration form, parents/guardians and students are acknowledging that they have read the Athletic Code of Conduct.
