*A current sports physical is MANDATORY in order to try out for and/or participate in any sport at Benjamin! 

**Please drop off summer physicals the week before tryouts/practice so they can be processed**

Mandatory requirements for tryouts:

  • Bengal Card (proof of physical on file) – obtained from school nurse
    If your child does not have a current physical on file they will be unable to try out/participate.  

Your child may still participate even if they forgot to sign up on the tryout list at school.

Important information:

  • Locker rooms are OPEN

  • Bring a water bottle

Coaches are excited to be having seasons and are looking forward to seeing your athlete on the field.

If you have questions, email Dan Baker, Athletic Director at dbaker@benjamin25.org.

Must have current physical on file.  Please check with the nurse and bring your Bengal Card to tryouts.

Q:  What is a “Bengal Card”?

A:  A “Bengal Card” is a card that is proof that you have a physical on file.

Q:  How do you get a “Bengal Card”?

A:  Go to the Benjamin Health Office and ask the nurse if you have a physical on file.  If you do, then she will give you a “Bengal Card”.  If you DO NOT have a physical on file, then you will have to tell your parents that you need to get a current physical.

Q:  What do you do with the “Bengal Card” once you get it from the nurse?

A:  You need to put it in a special spot (maybe tape it inside your backpack) until the first day of tryouts.  On the first day of tryouts you have to give the “Bengal Card” to the coach.  This is your ticket into tryouts!
