Registration for the 2025-2026 Winter Athletic season is now open. Any student interested in playing a winter sport must register, including those that played in the fall. Please utilize this link to create a family registration account with Arbiter Registration. Student ID numbers are needed to register and can be found on the summary page of your child’s Genesis account.
Physical examinations that athletes used for the fall season are not necessarily valid for the winter season and may need to be updated. The date of your athlete’s physical must be within 365 days of the start of the first practice for the sport. For a point of reference:
Bowling, Ice Hockey, Swimming - Valid physicals should have a date of 11/17/24 or later
Basketball & Wrestling - Valid physicals should have a date of 11/24/24 or later
Winter Track - Valid physicals should have a date of 12/1/24 or later
Only the completed Medical Eligibility Form should be submitted to the school. The Medical Eligibility Form provides space for the healthcare provider to share relevant health information with the school if necessary and includes a recommendation regarding the student’s ability to participate in athletics. It is important to note that the PPE must be conducted by a licensed physician, advanced practice nurse, or physician assistant who has completed the student athlete cardiac assessment professional development module developed by the NJDOE. In addition, the Health History Update Questionnaire must be submitted for each student whose physical examination was completed more than 90 days prior to the first day of official practice.
All paperwork must be electronically scanned and uploaded into your account. The deadline to register and ensure that students are cleared by our school physician is Monday, November 3rd.
All questions regarding athletics, can be directed to your child’s coach (see below) or to Ms. Willis (willisn@madisonnjps.org) and Mr. Scheifler (scheiflerr@madisonnjps.org) in the Athletic Office. Questions about physicals can be directed to Nurse Fastiggi (fastiggid@madisonnjps.org).
Contact information for winter coaches are below. Please note, the practice date listed is the date of the first official practice or tryout. In addition, please be mindful that the majority of our winter athletic teams will have practices and/or games over winter break, the days between Christmas and New Year’s Days. Please coordinate your plans accordingly.
Winter Meet the Coaches Night is scheduled for Wednesday, November 19th. Please reserve the date. More information will be shared closer to the event.
