  • Arbiter account required: To complete the online registration, families must create an Arbiter account, the official platform for PWCS athletic registration.
  • Student-athlete education included: What was previously known as concussion education is now part of the online registration. This ensures that all student-athletes receive essential safety training before participating.

A new Virginia state law taking effectJuly 1, 2025, introduces significant changes to how sports physicals are handled:
  • Updated form required: Student-athletes must use the revised sports physical forms beginning July 1, 2025.
  • 14-month validity: Physicals completed using the new form will be valid for 14 months from the date of the exam.
  • Digital submissions only: Schools will no longer accept paper copies of physical forms. All physicals must be uploaded as scanned or digital copies through the student’s online registration portal.
