Play Proud, Cheer Loud, Get Screened Before the Crowd

Power Up for summer sports, fall athletics and the 2025-2026 academic year with an adolescent wellness check that includes completion of sports physical paperwork. Getting checked now will help beat the crowd making appointments to get fit for fall. 

Your Horizon Health primary care provider is a health and lifestyle coach that can help you check your stats to make sure you are scoring points on the field and in all aspects of life. 

Why does an MVP need a wellness check? 

Sports

  • Preventing Injuries: Your provider can check for mild ailments like joint pain and allergies, determine treatment and manage a condition that may have caused more than a little discomfort. They’ll also look for larger issues like heart conditions and past concussions that can cut an athletic season short. 

  • Tracking Growth and Strength: Make sure your development is on-track during the quick changes your body is going through. 

  • Clear for Play: Your school likely requires a sports physical exam. Adolescent wellness checks meet that requirement but are more thorough and covered by insurance. 

For Life

  • Mental Health Support: Junior High and High School is stressful and can be full of anxiety and the challenge of figuring out who you are. During your wellness check, you can talk to your provider about issues you’re struggling with or worries you have about the future. They offer a chance to check-in with your physical and mental health. 

  • Healthy Habits for the Future: This is a key time to learn healthy habits for sleep, nutrition and moving your body. Habits you develop now will help keep you healthy until you’re as old as your parents. 

  • Build Trust with Your Provider: Regular visits with your provider help create a safe space where you can ask questions and find the support you need to play proud, cheer loud and be a superstar. 

Contact your Horizon Health provider today to get set up with a wellness check with sports physical paperwork completion. We want you to feel your best and make sure those wins keep coming!
