*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
*Frequently Asked Questions:*
*Q: *Are there any “open gyms,” “open fields,” weightroom slots, and/or
“captain’s workouts” going on that I can attend to get in shape for tryouts?
*A: *Yes, some sports have arranged pre-season workouts. Contact the coach
<https://sites.google.com/berkeley.net/bhsathletics/Sports> to see if your
sport is one of them.
*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: *I want to change the spring sports I’m registered for (either
eliminate sports or change to a different one); how do I do that?
*A:* Email athleticdirector at berkeley.net and tell us what you’d like
changed and we’ll take care of it.
*Q:* What do all the Home Campus codes mean (*pending, in progress, denied,
cleared)*
*A: *We're going through rosters daily and checking physicals and
grades. *NOTE:
*check spam/junk folders if you’ve received no recent notifications from
Home Campus
*Pending* = a completed registration we haven’t checked yet
*In Progress = *an incomplete registration lacking uploads (the physical)
*Denied = *Something is wrong (bad or missing physical; grades).
*Cleared* = Good to go for tryouts
*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
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
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: *My physical expires during the season
*A: *Please get a new one! (see next question if your insurance carrier
won’t schedule a new appt in the short time frame)
*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

.
*Q: *What happens if I'm not cleared by the first day?
*A: *You cannot practice/participate. Most spring 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: *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: *How can I support BHS Athletics?
*A: *Amazing question! There are several ways:
1. Volunteer for team jobs - coaches
<https://sites.google.com/berkeley.net/bhsathletics/Sports> 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/>. 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. Play in the BAF golf tourney!!
<https://www.berkeleyathleticfund.net/2022/01/21/2023-golf-classic-registration-is-open/>
