WELCOME TO BEDMINSTER SCHOOL ATHLETICS ~ HOME OF THE BULLDOGS!
All students in grades 6-8 are eligible to participate in school-sponsored athletic teams.
Students playing on the school's athletic teams MUST have the necessary physical forms on file in the Health Office (please see the Health Office page for this paperwork). Please be aware of all required deadlines to ensure eligibility.
A student’s eligibility for tryouts is determined by a current sports physical on record in the health office before tryouts begin.
This means that a student has had a physical within 365 days prior to the tryout date.
The nurse’s office will be processing sports physicals during the summer. All students must be medically cleared by their physician and school physician prior to the start of tryouts/practices.

Please note that tryouts and practice REQUIRE, under state law, that all forms be submitted AND cleared by the school physician. The school physician arrives once per season and should paperwork not be received in time, a student will be ineligible to try out, practice, or play. Please be mindful of these deadlines in advance to ensure proper processing. BTS endeavors to allow student-athletes play time by processing their paperwork with a quick turn around so these timelines must be adhered to.
