The baseline concussion testing will be conducted on Saturday March 17th and 24th from 10am-2pm at the Marlboro Recreation Building.  The cost is $24.95/child and is good for 1 year of follow-up testing in the event your child sustains a head injury in or out of sports.  Pre-registration is required!  Walk –up registration will only be accommodated if/when there are openings in the schedule.  Once you complete the registration process, you will be emailed a 30min window of time to come for the balance component of testing.  You can also elect to have the testing done on-site at db Orthopedic Physical Therapy, PC if neither date works for you.  The full program is described in the attached materials and can also be found at www.dborthopt.com/concussion or by calling 732-747-1262.

 

We encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity to have your child tested.  It will help your physician make an objective medical decision regarding return to play criteria.  Returning to sports too early can lead to devastating effects if a second head injury occurs.

CARDED COACHES WILL NEED THIS CERTIFICATION
Coaches:
Governor Christie passed a Law on Sports Concussion Injury Prevention and Management back in December 2010 (see attached). If you have coached (or are coaching or know of someone currently coaching) HS Soccer you may have been informed about this and your Board Of Education (BOE) may have required you to take either the National Federation of High Schools Sports Concussion On-Line Training Program OR the Centers for Disease Control On-Line Training Program (see below).

Regardless, this law will also begin to impact all Youth Soccer Programs run through NJYS that apply to rent out/use HS or Public Parks and Recreation Fields -- besides turning in a Certificate of Insurance, School/Parks and Recs will require at some point start to require proof that all coaches using these complexes show proof of training in Sports Concussions.

Bottom line YOU MUST take the On Line Course -- NJYS will require coaches submit proof of having taken this course.

Get prepared now-- if you want to coach!
Here are the links to obtain said training--its simple and FREE!
