Sports physicals:

All student-athletes interested in trying out for a fall sport must have an up-to-date physical submitted to Final Forms in advance of the first day of tryouts and practices.

Families are encouraged to get a completed physical from their child's physician. If you are unable to get a physical from your child's physician, you can schedule a physical with Whitney Young's school-based health center by calling (518) 573-2556.

Appointments will be available at Albany High School in room 4253 during July on the following dates:

  • Thursday, July 16 between 8:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m.
  • Tuesday, July 21 between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m.
  • Tuesday, July 28 between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m.
  • Thursday, July 30 between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m.

Again, you must call (518) 573-2556 to schedule your appointment and receive instructions. Whitney Young does require paperwork that must be filled out by the child's parent or guardian in order for them to be seen by the provider.

All other high school fall sports (grades 9-12): Aug. 24
