Justice offices will operate on summer hours through Friday, August 1. During this time, our offices will be open from 9 am - 1 pm. Offices will be closed Friday, July 4.
Before any student can participate in a tryout/practice for this school year. They must have a valid VHSL Athletic Physical submitted to the Activities Office and their Athletic Registration through Arbiter Sports complete. In the below image you will find links to direct you to those pages. More information below on Physicals and Athlete Registration.
 Effective for the 2025-2026 school year, all FCPS athletic registrations must be completed through Arbiter Sports. Arbiter Sports is a secure, multilingual, user-friendly platform that allows families to easily register students for sports programs. It helps reduce paperwork and improves efficiency while keeping your information on file for future registrations.
We have been told that the FCPS central student activities office will be sending out invites to all families who have registered in previous years. Your previous registration should transfer over and you would only need to update and complete registration for this year. You MUST complete this registration prior to any participation or tryout for in season sports!!!
If you have previously registered to play a sport at Justice, you should have received a separate email on Friday from Brian Garvey with a Arbiter Sports email address attached to it. You can use this to update your account and register for any sports you plan to play in 2025-2026. (You may want to check your junk mail for Arbiter email if you don’t see one)
If you are a rising 9th grader, have NOT previously registered or can not locate email sent from Arbiter, you can CLICK HERE and this will bring you to Justice HS Athletic Registration page. You will need to create a family account and will be prompted to register for any sports that you plan to play in 2025-2026
What Is Needed to Register:
Before beginning the online registration process, gather the following:
-
A VHSL Physical Exam (effective July 1, physicals are valid for 14 months from the date of the exam, including physicals already completed)

- These signatures confirm acknowledgment of all required FCPS policies and agreements.
Additional immunizations are required for students entering 7th and 12th grades:
- All students entering 7th grade are required to receive one dose of each of the following immunizations before the beginning of school: Tetanus, Diphtheria, and Pertussis booster (Tdap), Meningococcal vaccine (MenACWY), and Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine.
- To meet the Tdap requirement, the vaccination must be administered at age seven or older.
- To meet the MenACWY requirement, the vaccination must be administered at age 10 or older.
- As a parent/guardian, you may decide not to have your child receive the HPV vaccination. If that is the case, the school does not require documentation.
