- You have to crate a parent account in focus before you register your child for athletics.
- The parent account must be linked to the student.
- To ensure that the accounts are linked, parents must use the email address and phone number provided to BCPS in FOCUS to create their account.
Please note that you must upload a copy of your child’s
physical and proof of insurance (picture of insurance card) into the registration system for review by the Athletic Director before your child’s registration may be approved.
All athletes must be academically eligible to participate: Academic eligibility requirements state that students must:
- Have a minimum GPA of 2.0 in the quarter prior to the start of the season.
- Have no more than one E/I/U/M in the quarter prior to the start of the season.
- Fall: Determined by 4th quarter of previous school year (all incoming 9th graders are eligible)
- Winter: Determined by 1st quarter (will lose eligibility if grades drop at end of 2nd quarter)
- Spring: Determined by 2nd Quarter (will lose eligibility if grades drop at end of 3rd quarter)
All students must have a valid sports physical on file with the school: Please be advised that a sports physical is NOT always the same as a normal physical and must specifically clear a student to play sports. Completed physical forms must be uploaded into the FOCUS registration portal before an athlete will be cleared to participate. Physicals are valid for 14 months.

All student-athletes must have accident/health insurance to play sports. BCPS does not provide insurance for students. If you do not have insurance, it can be purchased online from Bob McCloskey insurance company.
