I know it's hard to believe... the spring season is still ongoing, summer hasn't started yet, and we're talking about FALL SPORTS REGISTRATION??? Yes we are!!!
Fall Sports Registration opens on Tuesday June 13th and will close mid-day on Friday August 18th. You have two full months to decide on a sport and complete the registration process. Registrations can be completed 24/7 through most electronic devices. Please do not wait until the last minute!
To complete the registration process, the following items must be taken care of:
1. Complete the Online Registration... Be sure to confirm your registration through the email sent to you by FamilyID (our registration site) after you submit your completed registration. Here is the link to the registration website: http://ipswichathletics.wixsite.com/registration. Please note participation fee payments are not made through the FamilyID website. The participation fee payment process is outlined below (section three).
2. You need a Valid Physical Exam on-file with the athletic department... Physical exams are only good for 13-months from the date of issue. Once the exam expires, the athlete is ineligible. So please plan ahead!
Physicals can be:
- Uploaded through the FamilyID registration site
- Emailed to: ipswich.athletics@gmail.com
- Faxed to (978) 356-3720 (please label fax "for athletics")
- Dropped off at the high school main office throughout the summer. Please ask that physicals be put in the Athletic Dept. mailbox.
Unfortunately we do not have access to any files in the Nurse's office, so please do not plan on using that method.
3. Your Participation Fee Payment. The fees are $650 per athlete, per year with a $900 family maximum.
- Participation fees can be paid by check (please date your check September 1st as they will not be deposited until mid to late September). Participation fees can be paid online through the Town of Ipswich online payment center, which can be accessed through the following link: https://www.ipsk12.net/domain/282
- Participation fees can be paid in full at the time of registration or a payment plan can be set-up. A minimum of $200 per student-athlete is required to register and start a payment plan. This $200 payment will be deducted from the total participation fee amount for the year. Additional payments are required monthly.
- Any balance remaining on a participation fee owed from a previous year must be paid in addition to your $200 for the 2017-18 school year before a registration is considered complete. Payments can be made online throughout the summer (or by checks dated 9/1/17).
4. All Uniforms from previous seasons must be returned in good condition or restitution must be made before an athlete will be added to a fall sports roster.
Please Note: People are sometimes confused by the registration and payment portion of this process. Both must be completed separately and are requirements to be added to a fall sports roster (please refer to steps 1 and 3 above).
If you have any questions , please contact the athletic department directly at: tgallagher@ipsk12.net or by calling (978) 356-3137 x. 2193
Thank you. I hope you and your family enjoy a happy and restful summer!
