Home Athletic Game Guidelines
As we begin another year of Middletown Athletics, we want to remind all spectators of our expectations when attending home athletic events.
These guidelines are in place to help provide a safe and enjoyable environment for our student-athletes, families, and community members. Please take a moment to review the information below before attending a home event.
New for home varsity football games: tickets will be sold through the end of the 3rd quarter. Spectators may still enter after the 3rd quarter at no charge
Additional reminders for all home athletic events include no backpacks, no sports equipment for spectators inside the stadium or gym, and all students in grades K-8 must be accompanied by an adult.
We appreciate your cooperation and continued support of our Blue Raider student-athletes. We look forward to seeing you throughout the 2026-2027 school year!
PIAA Physicals
Any student participating in PIAA sports for Middletown Area School District (MASD) is required to complete a PIAA Comprehensive Initial Pre-Participation Physical Evaluation (CIPPE). The CIPPE form, sections 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 must be completed and signed by the parent or guardian before the medical provider will examine the student and fill out section 6.
No student will be allowed to participate in athletics during the PIAA season without the entire 6-page CIPPE packet completed. In accordance with the PIAA, physicals cannot be dated by a medical provider earlier than May 1, 2026 and will be effective for the entire school year, until April 30, 2027.
Sections 7 and 8 of the PIAA form are for subsequent sport(s) in the same school year. ANY ATHLETE having a CIPPE exam more than 6 weeks prior to the start of their sports season, should complete the Section 7 form, regardless of whether they played a sport in the previous season. In accordance with the PIAA, the medical staff at MASD will require any athletes with a significant change in their medical history since the time of their initial exam, to have their physician complete the CIPPE Section 8 recertification form. Please read the form CAREFULLY.
PIAA and MASD participation packets can be found under the "Athletic Information" section or in the high school office.
