Participating students and their parents are required to read the PSD ATHLETIC HANDBOOK .

 

ALL ATHLETES (NEW AND RETURNING) MUST OBTAIN AN ORANGE "PERMIT TO PRACTICE" CARD BEFORE TRYING OUT FOR A SPORT, EACH SEASON! 

 

Process for obtaining an orange "permit," is as follows for Rocky athletes only (if athlete is ***home-based/charter school/private school - please  visit https://www.rockyathletics.org/page/3210,.

 

WHY MUST AN ATHLETE OBTAIN AN ORANGE CARD BEFORE EACH SPORT THEY TRYOUT FOR?

Because Colorado HS Sports Association (CHSAA) requires all athlete's in Colorado to have physical info on file with their school (Rocky - Gina - Athletic Assistant), registered, eligibility checked/cleared, along with proof of payment shown before an athlete may participate in any sports season.  Once this has been done, an orange card is issued.
