Concussion Awareness - Awareness for parents also

Parents, you know your child best.
When in doubt, sit them out

 

 Concussion Awareness
You have probably read about the recent Concussion law in Illinois which requires all high schools players to get medical approval before being allowed to return to play. Our league is making efforts to ensure we are aware of recognizing symptoms, understand basic prevention and what to do in case of a concussion. It is also important for Parents to understand the same, so please review the available information as well.

    Recent Updates


     Weather for practice...
    Please keep in mind that football and cheerleading is done at games even if it is raining. The only reason games are called is for lightning or excessively heavy rain. For this reason we enjoy practice in the rain. We will only cancel practice if we lose the fields due to excessive rain and the fields not being able to drain before practice. Before practice is called, we will check the fields and then make the decision.

     Lightning after practice starts...
      If you see lightning in the area after practice starts, Please return to the field to pick-up your children. If there are storms threatening, please remain at practice in case practice has to be cancelled after starting.

    The website will be updated before 5pm when practice is called off when possible. If we are at the field, we may not be able to update the website.

    The library will tow vehicles of people who park in the lot that are not patrons inside the library.
