Student-Athletes

The Athletic Training staff would like to welcome all Student-Athletes to Washington State University! We are here to provide service and support to the incoming and current Student-Athletes who participate in Varsity Athletics, which also includes cheerleading, the dance team (Crimson Girls) and spirit squad. Those students who are participating in club or intramural sports please see URec.

Every Student-Athlete must be cleared by the Athletic Training Staff and Team Physicians before participating in varsity sports, including Cheerleading/Spirit Squad and Dance team, at Washington State. This page outlines all the paperwork that must be done before going to Pre-Participation Physicals. Your sport coach will inform you about dates and times for your Pre-Participation Physical.

Leaving WSU - Graduating/Transferring

When an Student-Athlete has finished his/her career at WSU he/she must check in with the Athletic Trainer; we would like an updated address, also to return any equipment he/she may have borrowed.

If transferring from WSU to another institution, we still need a new address plus if you would like your new institution to have any medical information from our file we require a signed release form to do so.

WSU Athletic Training will send an exit letter and form to the Student-Athlete that needs to be completed, signed, dated and returned for the athlete to be covered for an additional year on any of the sport related injuries received while participating in their sport at WSU. This form will have the Student-Athlete's final coverage date on the bottom.
