The district is using an online platform to register for teams called Family ID. Please read below how to register on Family ID if your child is going to play a sport the fall season so you can get them registered to start on the first day.
All information needs to be filled out ASAP so that your child can be registered and ready to start the season on time. Please do not wait until the night before to sign them up.
Right now we are opening registration to allow for our school nurses to begin to clear athletes. In addition, all athletes will need an updated physical (within the last year) to be eligible to participate in athletics.
We offer the convenience of online registration for participation in interscholastics athletics through FamilyID (www.familyid.com).
FamilyID is a secure registration platform that provides you with an easy, user-friendly way to register for our interscholastic athletic programs, and helps us to be more administratively efficient and environmentally responsible.
When you register through FamilyID, the system keeps track of your information in your FamilyID profile. You enter your information only once for each family member for multiple uses and multiple programs. This online platform is the ONLY way to register for participation in interscholastic athletics at BH-BL. It will be helpful to have the following information handy to allow for accurate completion of your online registration:
- Copy of most recent physical (if applicable)
- Physician contact information
- Medical History
- Health Insurance Information
- Emergency Contact Information
