Concussion Awareness
Any player suspected by the coach, referee or parent to have a
concussion must be removed from further participation for at least the
remainder of the day and
Parents should be encouraged to seek professional medical treatment
for the player at the time of injury and secure medical clearance before
allowing the player to return to play.
In all cases, AYSO will require the parent to sign a new Participation
Release Form which includes a concussion waiver confirming that the
player has been given the appropriate clearance to return to play. See
the Safety Director for the form.

Goal Safety
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has reported 26 deaths
and hundreds of injuries since 1979 resulting from soccer goal accidents.
Securely anchoring the bottom and back of portable goals is the most important
step we can take to prevent soccer goal injuries. While most injuries come from
children climbing on top of improperly secured goals, injuries have occurred
when goals have tipped over in high winds or when goals are being set-up or
taken down.

Goal Safety
These guidelines should be followed to ensure the safety of our players:
1. Goals should be anchored with 2-4 stakes per goal (number and size dependent on
goal size and design and type of ground). Sandbags can be substituted if the
ground/surface necessitates.
2. Referees should check the anchoring of the goal as part of their safety inspection of
the field prior to each match. Do not start the game until the problem has been
addressed.
3. If used for practice, the coach should ensure the goal is properly anchored per CPSC
Guidelines. Do not start practice until the problem has been addressed.
4. When not in use, goals should be stored and locked in a manner that would prevent
them from falling.
5. No climbing or hanging on goals.
