Anyone participating in LCS athletics must go through the online Athletic Clearance process before attending any workout, tryout, or practice. Information on this and the necessary forms are at the links below. This is a link to a help video for Athletic Clearance How to Complete an Athletic Clearance Application (FL) – YouTube If you need more information on the Athletic Clearance process, please email Diane Klages at dklages@lcsonline.org.
Remember that tryouts generally last more than one day. Schedules may be found at https://lcsvikingathletics.org/ and are subject to change, so please check the online schedules frequently.
FHSAA Requirements: To be completed once each school year.
The FHSAA requires all student-athletes to watch four videos (Concussions for Students, Heat Illness Prevention, Sportsmanship, and Sudden Cardiac Arrest) prior to any tryouts or practices. These videos must be viewed and the certificates uploaded to the Athletic Clearance site BEFORE the student-athlete will be allowed to be at any practice, conditioning, or try-out.
Course Ordering
- Go to www.nfhslearn.com.
- Register for an account if you do not already have one (you should have one from last year). Please do this in the student-athletes name so that his/her name will show up on the certificate.
- Click on “Courses”, and select “Concussion for Students”, “Heat Illness Prevention”, “Sportsmanship”, and “Sudden Cardiac Arrest” from the list of courses.
- Choose “view course” and then “order course”.
· Select “Myself” as the course will be completed by you.
· Select your State and click “Order Course” (the videos are free).
· Click “Continue” and follow the on-screen prompts to finish the checkout process. Again, there are no fees for these courses.
Beginning a Course
- Go to www.nfhslearn.com.
- “Sign In” to your account using the email address and password you provided at the time of registration.
- From your “Dashboard” click “My Courses” and select the “Active” tab.
- Click “Begin Course” on the course you wish to take.
- Your course will launch on the same page as the web browser.
In the Concussion for Students video (approximately 25 minutes):
- You will need to click “next” from time to time.
- In Unit 3 on one of the slides you will see two panels (one labeled school and one labeled home), you will need to click on each of these before being allowed to click “next”.
In the Heat Illness Prevention video (approximately 40 minutes)
- You will need to click “next” after each section.
- Some sections require you to read, not listen.
- You will need to click on items in one of the sections.
The Sudden Cardiac Arrest video (approximately 15 minutes)
In the Sportsmanship video (approximately 20 minutes) make sure you go all the way to the end where they give you the certificate (past the credits).
·All certificates must be saved on your device and then uploaded to your Athletic Clearance account. Save them as a .pdf. We have had problems with those being saved as .jpeg. Also, they don’t always upload from a phone, so a laptop or computer may work better.
