Simplify documentation and data capture for high school athletics

To ensure the safety and participation of student-athletes, it is critical the proper documentation is completed prior to each season. Student-athlete enrollment forms capture important information like parental consent, physical limitations, and health concerns (e.g. asthma). Relying on physical documents and rigid spreadsheets to organize student-athlete data introduces opportunities for incomplete student information and missing forms, putting your school at risk. 

Leveraging digital forms to complete student-athlete registration drastically streamlines the enrollment process and simplifies record-keeping. With digital forms, your operation can improve the quality of collected data (via features like Conditional Logic and Database fields) and access submitted forms in real-time (eliminating the need for students to complete and deliver forms by hand). Once completed, mobile student-athlete forms can be instantly stored in integrated systems (like Box and Google Drive) or used to updated connected spreadsheets and databases. 

Ready to improve your student-athlete registration? Check out the top five forms for high school athletics:

• Student-Athlete Registration Packet
  The Student-Athlete Registration Packet captures a student’s high school information, their emergency contact information, their insurance information, and their parent/guardian consent. 

• Pre-Participation Physical History form
  The Pre-Participation Physical History form goes into detail regarding the student athlete’s medical history, past injuries, medical limitations, and more. This form is critical for ensuring that students are physically able to participate in school sports, and equipping coaches and volunteers with the information they need to care for student-athletes. With Checkbox Groups, students and guardians can easily note past injuries and medical conditions. Using Text fields, users can expand upon noted physical limitations, for coaches and medical staff. Using Automated Tagging, forms can be easily Tagged with a student’s name for easy recall. These forms protect your school from risk, and help coaches and athletic staff better care for student-athletes. 

• Sport Specific Guardian Release & Warning forms
  Sport Specific Guardian Release & Warning forms detail the risks specific to each activity, so that parent/guardians can make informed decisions regarding their child’s participation. Equipped with digital Signature boxes, parents/guardians can easily add their signature. 

• Concussion and Sudden Cardiac Arrest Awareness form
  The Concussion and Sudden Cardiac Arrest Awareness form details the risks of concussion and cardiac arrest, involved in athletic participation. These forms require a guardian signature, ensuring parent/guardians acknowledge they received the awareness form. Using mobile forms to complete these documents ensures the input of critical authorizations via Required fields.   

• Transportation Forms
  Digital Transportation forms inform parent/guardians that their child’s participation in athletics may require transportation to other locations. This form allows parents to consent to their child being transported via school district vehicles, and acknowledge any risk involved.
