Knowing the signs of concussion can prevent further injury
or even death.
The facts:
Seek medical attention
• A concussion is a brain injury.
• All concussions are serious.
• Concussions can occur without loss of consciousness.
• Concussions can occur in any sport.
• Second impact syndrome, a rare
condition in which a second
concussion occurs before a first
concussion has healed, causes rapid
and severe brain swelling and often
permanent damage.
• Ensure the athlete is evaluated by an
appropriate health care professional.
Do not try to judge the severity of
the injury yourself.
If the athlete exhibits or reports
any warning signs of concussion,
follow these steps:
• Second impact syndrome can be
prevented by delaying the athlete’s
return to play until the athlete
receives appropriate medical
evaluation and approval to play.
Remove from play
Inform parent/guardian
• Make sure the athlete’s parents or
guardians are informed about the
injury and that the athlete should be
seen by a health care professional.
Prevent further injury
• Only allow the athlete to return
to play with permission from an
appropriate health care professional.
If you suspect an athlete has a concussion, the Headache &
Concussion Center is here to help. As the only center of its
kind in the area, our physicians have extensive training and
specialized diagnostic tools to properly treat concussions.
For more information, call the center at (502) 899-6782 or

Parent/Guardian Student-Athlete Concussion Statement
▉ I understand that it is my responsibility to report all injuries and illnesses to my athletic trainer
and/or team physician.
▉ I have read and understand the Norton Sports Health Concussion Fact Sheet.After reading the
concussion fact sheet, I am aware of the following information:
Initial Each Line
________ A concussion is a brain injury, which I am responsible for reporting to my team physician or athletic
trainer.
________ A concussion can affect my ability to perform everyday activities, and affect reaction time, balance,
sleep, and classroom performance.
________You cannot see a concussion, but you might notice some of the symptoms right away. Other
symptoms can show up hours or days after the injury.
________ If I suspect a teammate has a concussion, I am responsible for reporting the injury to my team
physician or athletic trainer.
________ I will not return to play in a game or practice if I have received a blow to the head or body that
results in concussion-related symptoms.
________ Following aconcussion, the brain needs time to heal. You are much more likely to have a repeat
concussion if you return to play before your symptoms resolve.
________In rare cases, repeat concussions can cause permanent brain damage, and even death.

Manual Athletes and Parents
David Zuberer, Athletic Director
Parental Communication Agreement
I would like to welcome you to the upcoming Manual athletic season. The coaching staff and I are
delighted to be working with such fine young people. We have great expectations for them both as players
and student-athletes. Over the course of this year, situations may arise that need to be addressed by the
coaching staff, player, and/or parent(s) according to a definite procedure. This document explains the
procedure that will be used to address these situations.
Because emotions are high directly after a game or related event, it is important to avoid any potentially
volatile situations between parents and the coaching staff. Often a cooling off period allows all parties to
gain perspective on the situation. Our athletic department 24-hour policy is not to discuss with parents
game results or decisions within 24 hours of the event. If a parent needs to voice a concern, the parent
should schedule a meeting with the head coach that will occur after 24 hours have passed. If a parent
cannot wait and must voice their issue prior to the passage of 24 hours, then his/her son/daughter will be
given an automatic one-game suspension.
The anticipated situations are playing time, role on the team, and development. These are situations that
must be handled between the player and the coaching staff. Although we appreciate your interest and
support of the Manual athletic program, the coach must make the decisions in these areas. In order for
proper communication, the following procedures must be followed to address any of the noted situations or
other problems that may arise.
STEP 1:
The player and coaching staff member will have a meeting to address and discuss the player’s
questions or concerns. The player must request the meeting, preferably before the beginning of
a practice session. The staff will respond to the athlete’s inquiries and concerns. Most
situations should be resolved at this stage.
STEP 2:
If the athlete continues to have questions concerning the situation addressed in Step 1, the
player must request a Step 2 meeting. The player and a coaching staff member will meet
again. At this meeting, they will discuss the problem, questions, and previous issues to assess
if further action is necessary. The coach will determine if parental participation at this meeting
would be productive.
STEP 3:
If the athlete remains dissatisfied with the coaching staff’s response after Steps 1 & 2, the
player will need to request a Step 3 meeting via the head coach. The player, parent, coach, and
athletic director will meet at an agreeable time. The coaching staff and athletic director will
address and respond to the inquiries as soon as possible.
All parents and players must sign this document agreeing to the above procedures. Hopefully, by adopting
and implementing this procedure, it will help to promote a clear and fair resolution to issues of concern.

STUDENT-ATHLETE SOCIAL MEDIA POLICY
Manual High School student-athletes are representatives of their family, their team, their high
school, and their community. With that in mind, our student-athletes are expected to exercise good
judgment in their use of social media, conducting themselves in a responsible and respectful
manner.




It is impermissible for student-athletes to post information, photos, or other
representations of sexual content, inappropriate behavior (e.g., drug or alcohol use), or
items that could be interpreted as demeaning or inflammatory.
Student-athletes are required to abide by all team policies, school policies, and KHSAA rules
when utilizing social media.
It is not permissible to comment on injuries, officiating, coaching decisions or team matters
that could reasonably be expected to be confidential to team members.
Student-athletes are required to follow all respective social media rules.
Best Practices and Reminders




Think twice before posting. If you wouldn't want your coach, parents, or future employer to
see your post, don't post it.
Be respectful and positive.
Remember, many different audiences view your posts including fans, children, local
authorities, parents, faculty, etc.
The internet is permanent. Even if you delete something, it's still out there somewhere.
Coaches and administrators monitor social media websites. Potential employers use these
social media websites to screen candidates. Use the privacy/security settings made available
on these sites.
Violation of the Student-Athlete Social Media Policy may result in disciplinary action-- including
temporary or permanent suspension from the team--as determined by administration and head
coach. By signing below, the athlete and parent agree to abide by these rules.
