Athletics Handbook Athletics Clearance Website Guide

As mandated by the Florida High School Athletic Association (FHSAA), every Shorecrest athlete must be cleared to participate for practices and for all team competitions. The clearance process requires the following:

  • A completed FHSAA physical (EL2) form signed by the student’s doctor
  • Signed Insurance/Liability/Heat/Concussion/Cardiac Arrest (EL3) forms 

In addition, Shorecrest requires the following forms to be completed by a parent and a student:

  • Signed Athletic Handbook Acknowledgement form
  • Shorecrest Athletics Permission Forms by SPORT 

All the forms mentioned above will be collected via the FHSAA Athletic Clearance Website. We do not accept paper athletic forms in order to expedite and streamline the clearance process.

Each family will create one account on the Athletic Clearance website and perform the following actions for each student athlete in the family:

  • Read and electronically sign the required Insurance/Liability /Heat/Concussion/Cardiac Arrest (EL3) forms
  • Download the Athletic Handbook from the Athletic Clearance website, read and then electronically sign the Athletic Handbook Acknowledgement Form
  • Upload ALL 4 PAGES of a completed and signed FHSAA physical (EL2) form (PDF format only-photos will not be accepted)
  • Download, complete and then upload Shorecrest Athletics Permission Form by SPORT – One per specific sport in PDF format only, photos will not be accepted

Once these actions have been completed, a confirmation email will be sent to the email address that was provided when the account was created by the family. The email will state that the student’s eligibility is pending approval by the school. The athletic office will work quickly to approve the clearances as they are submitted. Once a student has been cleared, the system will send another email notifying families that the student is eligible to participate in Shorecrest athletics.

Families may begin this process May 15 for any sport that takes place over the 2023-2024 school year -- please don’t delay. By completing the clearance process early you will ensure that your child’s eligibility is approved in a timely manner.

**Please be advised - an athlete’s clearance must be completed 48 hours before the first practice/tryout. This allows our athletic office time to review the documents and let parents know if any information is missing. If the student is not cleared before the first practice/tryout, the athlete may still attend practice but cannot participate until the next practice day – if the clearance has been completed by then.**

Please contact Melinda Holmes, Assistant Director Athletics (Operations), [email protected], with any questions or concerns.
