What Is a Sports Physical (Pre-Participation Physical Exam)?
A sports physical, also called a pre-participation physical exam (PPE), helps ensure an athlete is healthy enough to safely participate in sports. It’s often required by schools and athletic programs before the season starts.
During a sports physical at Onyx, we review:
✅ Medical history & past injuries
✅ Heart & lung exam
✅ Blood pressure & vital signs
✅ Vision screening
✅ Joint strength, flexibility, and range of motion
✅ Clearance for sports participation
If anything needs follow-up (asthma, prior concussions, heart concerns, etc.), we’ll guide you on next steps so your athlete stays safe on and off the field.
Who Needs a Sports Physical?
Most leagues and schools require a sports physical for:
🏀 Middle school & high school athletes
⚽ Club and travel teams
🏈 Recreational leagues
🥎 New athletes or those returning after injury
🏃♂️ Camps, tournaments, and tryouts

Sports Physicals vs. Annual Physicals – What’s the Difference?
A sports physical focuses on athletic clearance and injury risk.
An annual physical is more comprehensive and includes preventive screenings, labs, and chronic condition management.
👉 Many families choose to combine both in one visit — ask us if your child is due for a full annual exam.
