Athletic Eligibility/Clearance Packet Collection
The eligibility packet must be completed prior to participating in summer camps, tryouts, or practices. To ensure the student-athlete is cleared for all seasons of sport for 2023-2024, Katella Athletics recommends the physical be dated May 20, 2023 or after. This will prevent your student-athlete from potentially having his/her season interrupted because of eligibility.
Katella Athletics will be using homecampus.com for Athletic Clearances for the 2023-2024 school year. NO paperwork will be submitted to the athletic department. All paperwork will be uploaded to the homecampus.com website, and will be verified online by the athletic directors.
In order for a student to participate in the summer and school year programs, they must have their eligibility packet cleared.
Students must be cleared through the athletic department before participating in tryouts, practices, or games, and must carry a 2.0 gpa.
If students are getting a physical from Kaiser, Kaiser must stamp the AUHSD physical form, and may electronically sign their "full activity; cleared for sports" form by the M.D.
