Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: Can I still turn in paper copies of the mandatory forms to the Athletic Office?
A: No. All paperwork must be submitted online via Big Teams Student Central.
Q: Why can’t I fill out the PIAA CIPPE Section 6 online?
A: PIAA CIPPE Section 6 is the actual physical that requires a physician signature, which cannot be done electronically. The form must be downloaded, printed, filled out by your doctor and then uploaded to your Big Teams Student Central account. See instructions in your account.
Q: Do these forms need to be filled out prior to voluntary, off-season workouts?
A: No. All paperwork is due prior to the start of the first official day of practice.
