LAUSD is using an online program for Athletic Clearance, which is required for all Marching Band and Color Guard members.
Please see instructions below:
STEP 1
All athletes will now get cleared through https://bit.ly/taftsports
- Click on “CA”
- Create an Account
- Start a new clearance - Make sure to select ‘Taft” and the correct year (2024-2025)
- Then complete ALL sections. For sport, select “STUNT”
- You will need to upload the medical insurance card directly into your Athletic Clearance.
- Once you complete the athletic clearance you will get emailed a confirmation letter. - THIS DOES NOT CLEAR YOU. It simply states that this part of the process is complete.
STEP 2
Complete the Physical and Preparticipation Form English or Spanish
TURN THEM IN DIRECTLY TO THE MR.LOZA - ORIGINALS COPY ONLY
PLEASE MAKE SURE TO MAKE A COPY OF EVERYTHING THAT YOU PHYSICALLY TURN IN
Preparticipation Form Checklist:
- Fill out completely and explain ALL the yes answers in the space provided or add additional paper if needed.
- Make sure the form is signed by both the parent/guardian and student-athlete.
Physical Form Checklist:
- Make sure the entire form is filled out and the doctor signs AND stamps the physical. We cannot accept physicals that are not stamped.
- Physicals are valid for 4 years from the date of the physical. However, please keep a copy for your records, as you may need to turn in a copy of that one for future athletic clearances.
There are also printed copies of the online instructions and physical/preparticipation forms in the Textbook Room available for students.
