Athletes must be cleared
<https://sites.google.com/berkeley.net/bhsathletics/Resources/athlete-registration>

*Note: "*Open Field/Gym/Pool" is when coaches literally open the field,
gym, or pool for student-athletes to come workout and get ready for the
season. Attendance is not required and sessions are non-evaluative.
"Captains practices" are unofficial meet-ups run by returning captains.
Again, attendance is not required and they are non-evaluative workout
sessions. Any weightlifting opportunities listed below are under the direct
supervision and instruction of BHS Strength and Conditioning Coach Curtis
Tunson.

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: 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/> (BAF). 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.
Q: I play a winter sport that still has practices and games during the week
of 2/5. 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 MUST communicate
with the coach ahead of time to learn about make-up tryout opportunities
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: You should be able to log into your account and change it. You could
also 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'll begin clearing athletes on Monday 1/16/24 and then check grades
and physicals on Home Campus daily until tryouts. NOTE: check spam/junk
folders if it gets close to Feb 5th and you've still received no
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 <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.
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.
Click on your existing clearance
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/local-clinics>.
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/1HIiN0ZRw-BqSc_4XMt6L9omqRSLpjwDf/view?usp=sharing>
.
Q: What happens if I'm not cleared by the first day?
A: You cannot practice/participate. Most spring teams have competitive
tryouts (aka "cuts") 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.
