Springville High School released updated tryout requirements and seasonal schedules for several athletic programs on Sunday, detailing the mandatory registration and medical documentation required for students to participate in the 2025-2026 athletic season.
Mandatory Tryout Requirements
The school administration outlined a strict set of prerequisites for all student-athletes, including freshmen, wishing to join Red Devil teams. According to Springville High School, all students must register through a My Athlete Account. Players who participated in a fall sport must also add their chosen winter or spring sport to that account and complete all necessary electronic signatures.
Beyond digital registration, the school requires completed physical and medical history forms for all participants. Ninth-grade students face an additional requirement: they must complete a specific 9th Grade Participation Form. Once all paperwork is completed, students must bring the documents to the Athletics Office to receive a yellow slip, which coaches require before any tryouts can begin.
