Athletics

Any student-athlete who has attended a high school other than McNair must complete the transfer portion on the Athletic Clearance website during registration of your student. CIF Sac-Joaquin Section office must clear you prior to participation in an athletic contest.

Failure to do so can result in ineligibility for the student-athlete and possible forfeitures and sanctions for specific teams and the Athletic Department.

The most efficient method of communication with the CIF on eligibility questions is through the student-athlete’s athletic director or principal. Parents/guardians/caregivers calling the CIF on eligibility matters can create unnecessary delay. Coaches and parents must work with their school's ADs or principals to help determine a student-athlete’s eligibility. 

All transfer students must submit transfer eligibility paperwork and be approved by the Section office BEFORE competing. No paperwork is required for incoming freshmen. The Parent Form is the first start of the transfer process and can be found during the registration on athleticclearance.com.
