Athletes must be CLEARED <https://sites.google.com/berkeley.net/bhsathletics/Resources/athlete-registration> to participate in practices.
All athletes (including returning athletes) must have a valid physical and register online through our registration system called Home Campus. To register and learn all about the clearance process, go to: https://sites.google.com/berkeley.net/bhsathletics/Resources/athlete-registration <https://sites.google.com/berkeley.net/bhsathletics/Resources/athlete-registration>
 
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: I've done the Home Campus clearance but it still says pending
A: We're checking physicals for errors as they come in, however we cannot officially clear student-athletes until SEMESTER 1 grades post. Therefore, expect notification of clearance sometime between 1/8 and 1/28.
 
Q: My physical expires during the season
A: Please get a new one. Winter break is a perfect time!
 
Q: My physical expires during the season but my insurance won't let me get a new one until it's been a year since the last one
A: We recommend going to a local clinic, click here <https://sites.google.com/berkeley.net/bhsathletics/Resources/athlete-registration?authuser=0> and scroll to the bottom. Some charge as little as $25. You can go to your family physician through your insurance over the summer to reset the 1 year clock to a more convenient time in the year. Here is a downloadable copy of our physical form <https://drive.google.com/file/d/1DRbh01uSFUpwOSO9uapOY6eDXjR4AUhD/view?usp=sharing>.
 
Q: What happens if I'm not cleared by the first day?
A: You cannot practice/participate. Many teams have competitive tryouts and this can impact your chances of making the team. Contact coaches <https://sites.google.com/berkeley.net/bhsathletics/Sports> ASAP if you have extenuating circumstances
 
Q: I play a winter sport that still has practices and games during the week of 2/6. What should I do?
A: Contact the coach <https://sites.google.com/berkeley.net/bhsathletics/Sports> of the SPRING team you wish to play for to arrange a make-up tryout. It is not safe (or fair) for you to do two rigorous practices in one day. You are entitled to a make-up tryout but you MUST communicate with the coach ahead of time.
 
Q: What should I do if I have an unavoidable scheduling conflict with a tryout day(s)? (other than being a winter athlete)
A: Please contact coaches <https://sites.google.com/berkeley.net/bhsathletics/Sports> immediately to discuss make-up options if you have scheduling conflicts.
 
Q: I don't remember seeing an email about my clearance status. How can I check if I'm In Progress (aka incomplete), Pending (aka everything done and waiting for ADs to check grades), Denied (aka something is wrong with my physical), or Cleared?
A: Go to https://www.homecampus.com/login <https://www.homecampus.com/login>
1) Log in using the email and password you set
2) This will take you to the "My Student/Athlete Clearances" page.
3) Hit the blue SEARCH button and you should see your existing registration
Note: check your spam folder if you've never received an email from HOME CAMPUS
Note: the steps described above will also help you identify if you have duplicate registrations that can be deleted.
 
Q: I registered before I had my physical ready. I now have it. How do I upload it?
A: To upload your physical, take a picture or scan of it and then,
1) Go to https://www.homecampus.com/login <https://www.homecampus.com/login>
2) Log in using the email and password you set
3) This will take you to the "My Student/Athlete Clearances" page.
4) Hit the blue SEARCH button and you should see your existing registration
5) Click on the "Files" Icon
6) Upload your physical here and then hit "save and continue"
 
Q: How can I support BHS Athletics?
A: Amazing question! There are several ways:
1) Volunteer for team jobs - coaches will have preseason meetings and be soliciting help for tasks ranging from team parent, drivers, snack coordinators, uniform coordinators, scoreboard operators, etc.
2) Donate to the Berkeley Athletic Fund! <https://www.berkeleyathleticfund.net/>, specifically their current COACHES FUND DRIVE <https://forms.donorsnap.com/form?id=4a40cc07-5980-450a-a51e-b59303f085f3>. You will also have an opportunity to donate during the clearance process. BAF helps support coaching stipends and funds capital projects, team travel, uniforms and equipment.
3) Come to a BAF meeting. BAF meets once a month. CONTACT BAF <https://www.berkeleyathleticfund.net/contact-us/> for more info
4) Become a BAF Booster Club member! <https://www.berkeleyathleticfund.net/fundraising/booster-club/>
5) Be exemplary student-athlete parents/guardians/fans <https://www.cifncs.org/Sportsmanship/SpCh7_-_Parents_-_Fans_Doing_What-s_Right.pdf> that cheer respectfully for both sides, model respect for the rules, officials, and coaches, and help our student-athletes be the best they can be.
