Concession Policy
Concussion Policy- House Bill 284, the Return to Play Act of 2013 effective Jan. 1, 2014
HB 284 requires recreational leagues to provide an information sheet on the risks of concussion at the time of registration to all youth athletes’ (ages 7 to 18) parents or legal guardians. CLUBHOOPS, LLC recognizes that adolescent athletes are particularly vulnerable to the effects of concussions.

Any youth athlete who participates in youth athletics and exhibits signs of a concussion must be removed from the game, practice, competition or tryout and be evaluated by a healthcare provider.**
Any youth athlete who is deemed by a healthcare provider as sustaining a concussion shall not be permitted to return to play until he/she receives clearance from a health care provider for a full or graduated return to play.
* By law, recreational leagues only have to comply with Part A of the policy above; however, it is strongly encouraged that leagues establish and implement a concussion management policy consistent with the school level requirements.
** The term 'healthcare provider' means a licensed physician or another licensed individual under the supervision of a licensed physician, such as a nurse practitioner, physician assistant, or certified athletic trainer who has received training in concussion evaluation and management.
