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 CAREFULLY***

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 P a g e | 7

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 P a g e | 8

What can happen if my child keeps on playing with a concussion or returns too 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 recoveringfrom 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”

TRUSTWORTHINESS  Trustworthiness—Be worthy of trust in all you do.  Integrity—Live up to high ideals of ethics and sportsmanship and encourage players to pursue victory with honor. Do what’s right even when it’s unpopular.  Honesty—Live honorably. Don’t lie, cheat, steal or engage in any other dishonest conduct.  Reliability—Fulfill commitments. Do what you say you will do.  Loyalty—Be loyal to the school and team; Put the interests of the team above your child’s personal glory. RESPECT  Respect—Treat all people with respect at all times and require the same of your student—athletes.  Class—Teach your child to live and play with class and be a good sport. He/she should be gracious in victory and accept defeat with dignity, compliment extraordinary performance and show sincere respect in pre-and post-game rituals.  Disrespectful Conduct—Don’t engage in disrespectful conduct of any sort including profanity, obscene gestures, offensive remarks of a sexual nature, trash-talking, taunting, boastful celebrations, or other actions that demean individuals or the sport.  Respect for Officials—Treat game officials with respect. Don’t complain or argue about calls or decisions during or after an athletic event. 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. Be honest with your child about the likelihood of getting an athletic scholarship or playing on a professional level. Reinforce the notion that many universities will not recruit student-athletes who do not have a serious commitment to their education. Be the lead contact for college and university coaches in the recruiting process.  Role Modeling—Remember, participation in sports is a privilege, not a right. Parents/Guardians too should represent the school, coach and teammates with honor, on and off the court/field. Consistently exhibit good character and conduct yourself as a positive role model.  Self-Control—Exercise self-control. Don’t fight or show excessive displays of anger or frustration.  Healthy Lifestyle—Promote to your child the avoidance of all illegal or unhealthy substances including alcohol, tobacco, drugs, and some over-the-counter nutritional supplements, as well as of unhealthy techniques to gain, lose, or maintain weight.  Integrity of the Game—Protect the integrity of the game. Don’t gamble or associate with gamblers.  Sexual Conduct—Sexual or romantic contact of any sort between students and adults involved with interscholastic athletics is improper and strictly forbidden. Report misconduct to the proper authorities. FAIRNESS  Fairness and Openness—Live up to high standards of fair play. Be open-minded, always willing to listen and learn. CARING  Caring Environment—Consistently demonstrate concern for student-athletes as individuals and encourage them to look out for one another and think and act as a team. CITIZENSHIP  Spirit of the Rules—Honor the spirit and the letter of rules. Teach your children to avoid temptations to gain competitive advantage through improper gamesmanship techniques that violate the highest traditions of sportsmanship. I have read and understand the requirements of this Code of Conduct and acknowledge that I may be excluded from events if I violate any of its provisions.
