GWINNER, N.D. - Sanford Health Gwinner is offering sports physical events for student-athletes to complete their sports physicals for the 2024-2025 school season. Student-athletes are required to get an annual sports physical when participating in school-sanctioned sports and must have their physicals completed before the first day of practice for their sport.
Student-athletes can receive their sports physical this summer at 69 Highway 13 W., on Thursday, July 18, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Athletes can make an appointment at by calling their local Sanford Gwinner clinic at 701-678-2263. Sports physicals will be offered for $50 and payment is due upon arrival. Please also bring your appropriate state sports physical form.
If unable to attend a sports physical event near you, families may also request to schedule an appointment with their primary care provider for their young athlete's annual sports physical.
• A sports physical includes a physical exam with a provider to ensure safe participation and completion of the sports physical form.
• A child wellness exam is billed to your insurance and includes a comprehensive evaluation, immunizations, family history review and sports physical requirements.
A well-child exam also offers an opportunity to talk about nutrition, safety, and other age-appropriate topics. Parents are encouraged to check with their insurance provider, as many pay 100% for a wellness exam.
Student-athletes are asked to bring their school physical form to their visit with parent portion completed and signed. Both traditional sports physicals and well-child checks are by appointment only.
