WHAT DO I NEED TO PARTICIPATE?

These items must be turned in no later than the first week of practice. 
~  Registration Packet (or online form)- completed

~  Current Annual Sports Physical that covers the entire season (doesn’t expire until after Nov. It is a good idea to ahead and schedule your child’s physical now so you can make sure you get an appointment before it expires.) Here is a form that will work if your child’s doctor’s office doesn’t have one.

~  Birth Certificate (must be original or certified copy with certified stamp/seal) We must keep these on file for the entirety of the season. If you need it returned to you sooner, please provide us a photocopy with the original; this will be verified and signed by WNCFYC after weigh-ins, and your original will be returned when the book is returned to us.
