• On some phone browsers, there are pop-ups specifically from ArbiterSports that do not show up or close out the registration page without saving. If this happens, please try to complete the registration on a computer.

I thought I completed a registration, but I’ve been contacted saying I haven’t. Why isn’t it showing up?

• Most likely, your registration has only been Saved. Click on the Registrations tab and select the registration. Once selected, click Submit Registration.
• Check to make sure the correct sport was selected. 

I did not finish my registration. Can I go back to it later?

• As long as you Saved your registration, you should be able to access and edit it.

• Every middle and high school student who tries out for a sport is required to complete a PIAA Comprehensive Initial Pre-Participation Physical Evaluation (CIPPE). The CIPPE only needs to be completed ONCE per academic year.
• The CIPPE must be dated ON or AFTER May 1st of the current academic year. CIPPEs dated before May 1st  will not be valid or accepted.

You DO NOT need to fill out Sections 1-4 as they are done via Arbiter Registration. The parent/guardian and the athlete need to fill out and sign Section 5. Section 6 of the PIAA Physical must be completed, signed, and dated by an Authorized Medical Examiner (MD, DO, PAC, CRNP, or SNP).
• Copies of the PIAA CIPPE are available in the Athletic Office, the Athletic Training Rooms, or you can download and print it here: PIAA CIPPE 5+6
• You can either turn in a hard-copy of the completed Sections 5 and 6 to the Athletic Trainers OR you can upload copies of both documents directly to your student’s Arbiter Registration.
