As
September comes to a close, the Athletic Department at HGCS is preparing for
the upcoming winter season. For those of you who are interested in trying out
for basketball, swimming, or cheerleading this year, it is time to begin the registration
process and complete your online athletic forms through FamilyID. The FamilyID
registration must be completed and a current physical (signed by a doctor
within the past 395 days) must be submitted for all winter athletes BEFORE
tryouts begin.
Please
read below for information regarding pre-season activities (if applicable),
tryout dates and times, and how to register on FamilyID.
In
lieu of an evening sports information meeting, we have created an informational
video that you can view from the comfort and convenience of your own home.
Please watch the video at the following link to ensure that you are familiar
with our Athletic Department policies and are ready for the winter season: https://vimeo.com/348660093

FAMILYID REGISTRATION
INFORMATION
We
have partnered with FamilyID, a secure online platform for submitting all
necessary information for sports participation. Families will be able to create
an account, register middle school and high school students for
sports each season, and digitally sign athletic forms. Sports physicals, which
must be updated and signed by a doctor every 395 days, may be uploaded directly
to your FamilyID account.
Each family will
only need to create one FamilyID account. Multiple children can
be registered for multiple sports seasons under one family account.
Hickory
Grove's FamilyID site is now open and accepting registration for
winter sports. Tryouts will be held the week of October 28th, and specific days
and times for each sport can be found on the FamilyID page. Each
student-athlete's online registration must be complete and sports physical
must be uploaded (or submitted in person to the Athletic Office) before tryouts
begin. You can begin your athletic registration now by following the
instructions below:

information again manually. Please be sure that the student’s physical form
that was uploaded is still current (signed by a doctor within the past 395
days).

attached to this email and is also available as a PDF link on the FamilyID site.
The sports physical form will need to be printed and signed by a doctor before
it is uploaded to your FamilyID account or submitted in person to the
Athletic Office.
