Athletic Policy & Physical Form
Students wishing to participate in fall sports at Northridge Middle School need to make sure that they meet all the requirements necessary to begin practice. A physical examination, code of conduct, and insurance form must be on file in the Northridge office before anyone may participate in any practice. The physical must have been after April 11, 2011 to be valid. All the required forms are in one packet, which is available at the NMS office or online at www.mcsin-k12.org, click on schools, then Northridge Middle School, and then athletics. Please do not use the old physical forms, the new ones were posted on May 23, 2011. If you printed out an old physical form, the new form will need to be completed by your physician. Information pertaining to fall sports may be directed to the Activities Director or by telephoning 825-9531 during regular business hours.

Each parent will receive a credit card size pass. The pass will be good for all Northridge Middle School home sporting events, with the exception of tournaments. The passes may be purchased during the August registration dates or anytime after. It really is a fantastic deal if you have a child in at least two sports. Gate prices for normal admission are $3 for adults and $2 for students and senior citizens. These tickets are NOT good at High School Sporting Events. Also, High School All-Sports Tickets are not redeemable at Northridge Middle School Athletic Events.
