Athletic Registration on DragonFlyÂ

CARRINGTON REGISTRATION
We will still need hardcopies of the Preparticipation Physical Evaluations (PPE) form, and Concussion form.
While DragonFly Max will walk you through the process, I wanted to provide you with some helpful insights and answer some of the main questions you may have.
- Both you (the parent/guardian) and the athlete will be added under George L Carrington.
- It will ask you to pick a sport for your child. This is NOT a guarantee your child will make this team, nor is it binding. After tryouts, I will go in and officially add each athlete to their appropriate team.
- Registration is good per school year. If you are registering them in the Fall, you do not need to pick their Winter and Spring sports because they might not know. Again, sports picked by you are not binding and we can change or add them however needed.
Once you have added your child/children please hit the submit paperwork button this new to all participants. ALL paperwork is not uploaded. We will not collect anything in person. It is all submitted and approved online. Please make sure you complete ALL sections.
