ATHLETE HEALTH HISTORY RELEASE FORM

You must be enrolled and have a form on file before participating in any Special Olympics Oregon events, practices, or competitions.

  • The NEW Athlete Health History Release form is required of athletes joining for the first time and current athletes as they renew.
  • This form expires annually but no longer requires a physical exam or physician’s signature, so the renewal process is much easier.
  • This form replaces the old “Athlete Medical” form.
  • Complete this fillable form and return it to your Local Program.
  • Once the Local Program receives a complete copy of the form, the athlete will be eligible for practice and competition.
