In order to participate in a KV Winter sport, you must complete PIAA Section 8 electronically through ATS. Please sign in using the link below and follow the instructions to complete PIAA Section 8.

ImPACT Testing

All winter student-athletes need a completed ImPACT baseline test on file before day one of winter sports. Directions on completing these baseline tests will be emailed to each student-athlete after sign-ups are completed on deadline dates listed above. If you’ve already taken an ImPACT baseline test this Fall, you do NOT need to take another one.

If your student would like to participate on any winter sports team, please make sure you complete the above paperwork for now. Once your paperwork is completed, you’re automatically listed on our sign-up sheets. If you have any questions, or would simply like to confirm your paperwork status, please email Ms. Hannah Krewson at hkrewson@hatboro-horsham.org .
