Bobcats,

Athletic clearance for the 26-27 school year is opening on May 18th, 2026!  Athletic clearance is required each year, even for returning athletes.  All athletic clearance paperwork must be submitted for a student-athlete to receive a digital Ticket 2 Play through the Minga App.  A Ticket 2 Play is required to attend tryouts. The Ticket 2 Play will be distributed via the Minga App as a “sticker” one week prior to tryouts. Additionally, a roster of all cleared students will be provided to the Head Coach of the Program prior to tryouts.  Athletes will not be permitted to attend tryouts and or practices until they have been cleared by the athletic department. Incoming 9th grade students who do not have access to the Minga app will use their email confirmation from Home Campus as their Ticket 2 Play. 

Athletes will not be permitted to attend tryouts and or practices until they have been cleared by the athletic department.  

To start the athletic clearance process log onto www.athleticclearance.com.  Select the 2026-27 school year, and Sage Creek High School.  Students must complete the athletic clearance process by the due dates listed below.

Please be patient as we clear athletes. We are prioritizing in-season and upcoming-season clearances at this time. 

*Athletic Clearance registrations submitted after the due date may take an extended length of time to review due to responsibilities to current in season teams. Late submissions do not guarantee a tryout, as coaches may close their rosters at any point after tryouts begin.*
