All male and female valley athletes in middle and high school are invited to the Marcus Daly Rehabilitation Center on Thursday, August 1st, or Wednesday, August 7th from 6 to 7:30 p.m. and to the Bitterroot Physicians Clinic South on Monday, August 5th from 5 to 7 p.m. for the annual sports physical program. Hosting the sports physical clinics in both Hamilton and Darby helps to increase the number of students participating, resulting in the school districts receiving more in donations.
Over the past 11 years, the Sports Physical program sponsored by Marcus Daly Memorial Hospital and Medical Providers has raised a total of $97,500 for the valley’s school athletic programs. At all locations, the cost is $25 per student and 100% of the proceeds will be donated back to the students’ school athletic program. Cash or check only, payment is due at the time of visit, no refunds.
All participants must have a sports physical form. They are available at medical clinics or through your coach; or online at
www.mdmh.org/events. Parents must fill out and sign the sports physical form and accompany their child at the examination. The physical includes height, weight, blood pressure, pulse, vision, evaluations for posture, joints, strength, flexibility, heart, lungs, abdomen, ears, nose, and throat.
Marcus Daly Medical Staff members donate their time to make this program possible. For more information, call 363-2211 or visit
