Coventry High School Athletes Need Physical Exam Before Tryouts

Coventry high school students seeking to participate in varsity athletics must first secure a physician-completed physical exam that remains valid for 13 months along with a signed Sports Candidate Questionnaire before any try-outs begin.

These requirements apply directly to programs at Coventry Connecticut High School and Coventry Rhode Island High School as families prepare for the next season. The rules ensure compliance across the offered sports and help maintain eligibility in the conferences where the schools compete.

Conference Alignments and Sport Offerings

Coventry Connecticut High School fields 16 varsity sports and competes in the 15-team North Central Connecticut Conference. Coventry Rhode Island High School offers 13 varsity sports that include baseball basketball football lacrosse soccer tennis and volleyball with home events held at the facilities located at 40 Reservoir Road.

The Metro Athletic Conference recently announced new ticket pricing for high school athletic events effective immediately to improve community accessibility. Families can review those updated prices when planning attendance at games involving either school.

Document Deadlines and Program History

Coventry Rhode Island maintains a wrestling program that has secured 20 total state team championships including 17 consecutive titles from 1982 to 1998 and an additional victory in 2022. Students interested in that sport or any of the other 12 varsity options must meet the same physical and questionnaire standards as participants in the Connecticut programs.

Those preparing to start should contact the athletic offices at each high school to confirm current forms and obtain the exact physician requirements. The process begins with scheduling the exam and completing the questionnaire well ahead of the first try-out dates listed by the schools.
