Required Athletic Paperwork

FINAL FORMS

CHS utilizes Final Forms for all athletic paperwork. This requires a parent to first create an account, enter contact information, and sign athletic forms electronically. Then Final Forms will request a unique, personal email address for each student-athlete so that the athlete can log in and sign each form. It is recommended that students use a PERSONAL email address instead of their school email address as these passwords are reset every summer. A parent can easily log back into Final Forms and change the student's email address if needed.

Go to Final Forms

If you have trouble with Final Forms, help is available on their website. You can also contact the Athletic Director at 639-5026 or the e-learning help desk at (217) 639-1035.

Each athlete must have a current physical on file. Please submit your physical to the Athletic Department in the CHS office so that they can update your record in Final Forms.
