CONCUSSION DOCUMENTATION (HEADS UP to Youth Sports)
To help ensure the health and safety of young athletes, the CDC developed the HEADS UP Concussion in Youth Sports initiative to offer information about concussions to coaches, parents, and athletes involved in youth sports. The HEADS UP initiative provides important information on preventing, recognizing, and responding to a concussion.

Any player that shows signs of a concussion CANNOT participate without (1) Parent Waiver Form and/or (2) Return to Play Form.
