Athlete Medical Clearance
Prior to approved participation with a Northeastern University athletic team, all athletes must do the following:
- Complete their profile in our medical records system on an annual basis.
- Undergo a sports physical – This is required for participation and will be conducted by our team of physicians when you arrive for your Pre-Participation Evaluation.
- Submit evidence of sickle cell testing to be in compliance with NCAA regulations
- Provide your primary insurance information
All pre-participation paperwork is completed and submitted utilizing SportsWare Online. Incoming and transfer athletes will be contacted by Sports Medicine regarding their login information, and returning athlete login information will remain unchanged from the previous year.
Please do not e-mail medical records to us. If there is something you would like to provide, upload it into your Sportsware account under ‘Forms’.
