At Colonia Pediatrics, we understand the importance of keeping your child healthy, especially when participating in sports and physical activities. Our professional and approachable pediatrist in Avenel, NJ, provides thorough and convenient sports physicals for children to ensure your little athlete is set for a safe and successful season.
A sports physical—also known as a preparticipation physical evaluation—is much more than a paperwork requirement. It's a crucial step in safeguarding your child’s health, designed to identify any underlying medical or physical conditions that could impact their ability to play sports safely. Most schools and leagues require a sports physical on file before your child can participate.
Our focus at Colonia Pediatrics is on annual sports physicals that go beyond the basics. Every sports physical consists of two main parts:
You’ll fill out a comprehensive sports physical form (PPE form) detailing your child’s medical history, including chronic conditions (like asthma or diabetes), medications or supplements, prior injuries, past surgeries, and family history of chronic diseases. Honest answers help us make the best recommendations for your child’s safety.
Our experienced team will check your child’s:
We’ll also review any concerning symptoms during exercise, talk about prior injuries, and provide specific guidance to minimize risks while playing sports.
To ensure the smoothest experience and best care:
We recommend that your child’s regular pediatrician completes the sports physical for the most thorough and personalized evaluation-our providers know your child’s health history and can assess their development carefully for sports participation.
