UIL drops annual athlete physicals for junior high and high school
A study by three Houston researchers supports the UIL policy change to require physicals only when entering junior high and high school. After screening 2114 Houston-area athletes, 3.4 percent were referred for more exams and 0.3 percent disqualified, with most referrals being false positives. The team cites cost benefits and minimal risk increase, noting annual exams were costly and often unnecessary.
