Walk-in sports physicals by MinuteClinic® at CVS® 260 ARDEN AVE., STATEN ISLAND, NY 10312

When an athlete wants to join a sports team, they will likely need to complete a pre-participation physical examination (PPE), which is typically called a sports physical.

This is sometimes required as part of registering athletes for participation in a sport. A sports physical will help to assure that you or your child is healthy and physically capable of participating in chosen activities.

Before registering, ensure you understand the eligibility requirements set by the school or sports organizer. The purpose of a sports physical is to assess any conditions that could pose a risk to an athlete’s health and safety during training and competition.
