For returning participants, parents/guardians will be notified that their child(ren) need an updated physical. However, it is vital to immediately schedule an appointment with your child(ren)'s health care provider for a physical. For new participants, please provide a physical from your doctor before the start of practices.
​
*Physical MUST SAY "CLEARED TO PLAY FOOTBALL" if your health care provider does not write this we
CAN NOT accept the physical.
**Physicals for the 2019 season are due by August 1, 2019. Participants can not practice or be on the field
after August 1, 2019 without a physical.
​
Weigh Ins
-The Wyoming Valley West Youth Football and Cheerleading Conference (WVWYFCC) will schedule
mandatory weigh-ins for all Kingston Huskies football players before the season starts. The location is usually at the VFW Post 283 located at 757 Wyoming Ave. Kingston, PA 18704 but location is subject to change. PLEASE HAVE YOUR CHILD(REN) THERE BY THE SCHEDULED TIME (provided by the coaches) so that the coaches can check players in and get them in line to be weighed. Each parent/guardian is responsible to provide transportation for players. There is no need to bring your child(ren)'s football equipment to weigh-ins.
​
-In case of a pre-scheduled family event (vacation, etc.) you must download, print and complete the excuse form and provide it to your child(ren)'s coach ASAP so our coaches can provide the form to the WVWYFCC officials at the time of weigh-ins. -->CLICK HERE FOR 2018 EXCUSE FORM
​
-Make-up weigh-ins will be TBD at the same location, time TBD.
​
-If you have any questions please see your child(ren)'s coach or a board member in the stand.
​
**The WVWYFCC will fine you if your child(ren) does not attend a weigh in without a valid excuse.
