Any such incidents will result in removal from the activity or athletic team in accordance with the CONSEQUENCES section of this code. Page 5 WARNING TO PARENTS: SERIOUS, CATASTROPHIC AND PERHAPS FATAL INJURY MAY RESULT FROM ATHLETIC PARTICIPATION

By its very nature, competitive athletics may put students in situations in which SERIOUS CATASTROPHIC and perhaps, FATAL ACCIDENTS may occur.

Many forms of athletic competition result in violent physical contact among players, the use of equipment which may result in accidents, strenuous physical exertion, and numerous other exposures to risk of injury.

Students and parents must assess the risks involved in such participation and make their choice to participate, in spite of the risks. No amount of instruction, precaution, or supervision will totally eliminate all risk of injury. Just as driving an automobile involves choice of risk; athletic participation by high school students also may be inherently dangerous. The obligation of parents and students in making this choice to participate cannot be overstated. There have been accidents resulting in death, paraplegia, quadriplegia, and other very serious permanent physical impairment as a result of athletic competition.

By granting permission for your student to participate in athletic competition, you, the parent or guardian, acknowledge that such risk exists.

Students will be instructed in proper techniques to be used in athletic competition and in proper utilization of all equipment worn or used in practice and competition. Students MUST adhere to that instruction and utilization and MUST refrain from improper uses and techniques.

As previously stated, no amount of instruction, precaution, and supervision will totally eliminate all risk of serious catastrophic, or even fatal injury. If any of the foregoing is not completely understood, please contact your school principal for further information.

INSURANCE STATEMENT ***PLEASE READ ENTIRE STATEMENT CAREFULL Y***

CALIFORNIA EDUCATION CODE SECTION 32221 REQUIRES THAT EVERY STUDENT OF AN ATHLETIC TEAM HAVE ACCIDENTAL BODILY INJURY INSURANCE , PROVIDING AT LEAST $1500 OF SCHEDULED MEDICAL AND HOSPITAL BENEFITS. IF YOU CANNOT AFFORD THIS MEDICAL COVERAGE FOR YOUR ATHLETE, THE ATHLETIC DEPARTMENT CAN ASSIST IN PROVIDING INFORMATION ON AN ACCIDENT POLICY, WHICH MEETS THE ABOVE REQUIREMENTS. THIS COVERAGE IS NOT A 24 HOUR MEDICAL POLICY. IT ONLY COVERS THE STUDENT WHILE PARTICIPATING IN A SCHOOL-SPONSORED AND SUPERVISED ATHLETIC ACTIVITY. I HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE ABOVE INFORMATION REGARDING TVUSD’S POLICY. I UNDERSTAND THAT MAINTAINING THIS ACCIDENTAL BODILY INJURY INSURANCE POLICY IS MY RESPONSIBILITY AS THE PARENT OR GUARDIAN. IF, AT ANY TIME, DURING THE ATLETHIC SEASON I CAN NO LONGER AFFORD THIS POLICY IT IS MY RESPONSIBILITY TO CONTACT THE ATHLETIC DEPARTMENT.

BY SIGNING THIS DOCUMENT, I ACKNOWLEDGE THAT: 1. I have read the all of the above information and will abide by the provisions. 2 . All information provided is correct. False information will result in student ineligibility and team forfeits. 3. I will keep my insurance, in force, during the time my student tries out, practices or competes in athletics. 4. My student is enrolled or has an appointment to be enrolled in Great Oak High School Page 6 CONCUSSION INFORMATION SHEET

A concussion is a brain injury and all brain injuries are serious. They are caused by a bump, blow, or jolt to the head, or by a blow to another part of the body with the force transmitted to the head. They can range from mild to severe and can disrupt the way the brain normally works. Even though most concussions are mild, all concussions are potentially serious and may result in complications including prolonged brain damage and death if not recognized and managed properly. In other words, even a “ding” or a bump on the head can be serious. You can’t see a concussion and most sports concussions occur without loss of consciousness. Signs and symptoms of concussion may show up right after the injury or can take hours or days to fully appear. If your child reports any symptoms of concussion, or if you notice the symptoms or signs of concussion yourself, seek medical attention right away.

Symptoms may include one or more of the following:

• Headaches • Amnesia • “Pressure in head” • “Don’t feel right” • Nausea or vomiting • Fatigue or low energy • Neck pain • Sadness • Balance problems or dizziness • Nervousness or anxiety • Blurred, double, or fuzzy vision • Irritability • Sensitivity to light or noise • More emotional • Feeling sluggish or slowed down • Confusion • Feeling foggy or groggy • Concentration or memory problems (forgetting • Drowsiness game plays) • Change in sleep patterns • Repeating the same question/comment

Signs observed by teammates, parents and coaches include:

• Appears dazed • Vacant facial expression • Confused about assignment • Forgets plays • Is unsure of game, score, or opponent • Moves clumsily or displays lack of coordination • Answers questions slowly • Slurred speech • Shows behavior or personality changes • Can’t recall events prior to hit • Can’t recall events after hit • Seizures or convulsions • Any change in typical behavior or personality • Loses consciousness Page 7

What can happen if my child keeps on playing with a concussion or returns to soon?

Athletes with the signs and symptoms of concussion should be removed from play immediately. Continuing to play with the signs and symptoms of a concussion leaves the young athlete especially vulnerable to greater injury. There is an increased risk of significant damage from a concussion for a period of time after that concussion occurs, particularly if the athlete suffers another concussion before completely recovering from the first one. This can lead to prolonged recovery, or even to severe brain swelling (second impact syndrome) with devastating and even fatal consequences. It is well known that adolescent or teenage athlete will often under report symptoms of injuries. And concussions are no different. As a result, education of administrators, coaches, parents and students is the key for student-athlete’s safety.

If you think your child has suffered a concussion

Any athlete even suspected of suffering a concussion should be removed from the game or practice immediately. No athlete may return to activity after an apparent head injury or concussion, regardless of how mild it seems or how quickly symptoms clear, without medical clearance. Close observation of the athlete should continue for several hours. The new CIF Bylaw 313 now requires implementation of long and well- established return to play concussion guidelines that have been recommended for several years:

“A student-athlete who is suspected of sustaining a concussion or head injury in a practice or game shall be removed from competition at that time and for the remainder of the day.” and “A student-athlete who has been removed may not return to play until the athlete is evaluated by a licensed heath care provider trained in the evaluation and management of concussion and received written clearance to return to play from that health care provider”.

You should also inform your child’s coach if you think that your child may have a concussion Remember its better to miss one game than miss the whole season. And when in doubt, the athlete sits out.

Pursuing Victory with Honor CODE OF CONDUCT FOR PARENTS/GUARDIANS At Great Oak High School we believe in letting: * The players play * The coaches coach * The officials call the game We expect our parents and fans to cheer for our team, have fun, and save negative comments for somewhere else.

Athletic competition of interscholastic age children should be fun and should also be a significant part of a sound educational program. Everyone involved in sports Programs has a duty to assure that their programs impart important life skills and promote the development of good character. Essential elements of character building are embodied in the concept of sportsmanship and six core ethical values: trustworthiness, respect, fairness, caring, and good citizenship (the “Six Pillars of Character”). The highest potential of sports is achieved when all involved consciously Teach, Enforce, Advocate and Model (T.E.A.M,) these values and are committed to the ideal of pursuing victory with honor. Parents/guardians of student— athletes can and should play an important role and their good—faith efforts to honor the words and spirit of this Code can dramatically improve the quality of a child’s sports experience. Our athletic program subscribes to the Pursuing Victory With Honor Arizona Sports Summit Accord. “Pursuing Victory With Honor” and the “Six Pillars of Character”

RESPONSIBILITY • Importance of Education —Support the concept of “Being a student first.” Commit your children to earning a diploma and getting the best possible education.

Reinforce the notion that many universities will not recruit student-athletes who do not have a serious commitment to their education.
