    ✅ Action Needed: National Sports ID (NSID) Certification

    Registered Football & Cheer Athletes: If you registered for the 2026 season, you are required to be certified by June 30th, 2026 to participate this season. This means you must make an appointment with your physician to submit the medical clearance form and follow NSID instructions on our certification page

    On our Certification page, you must join the team link for your T-Bird athlete's specific team and certify them with the NSID process. Football athletes: Please join the age group you registered your child for even if you plan to have them try out for an Older/Lighter position later. The ✅ Green Checkmark will appear by your athlete's name once they are fully verified. NSID must be renewed every Football & Cheer season.

    Do not wait to complete this. Your athlete will not be issued equipment in July and will not be able to practice if their NSID is incomplete.
