    BASEBALL SAFETY GUIDELINES
    High School
    This school strives to protect each student from possible injury while engaging in school activities. The
    guidelines and/or practices identified below have been established for this activity in order to protect the
    student and others from injury and/or illness. Participants and their parents should recognize that
    conditioning, nutrition, proper techniques, safety procedures, and well-fitting equipment are important
    aspects of this training program. Each participant is expected to follow the directions/standards of the
    coach.
    Travel to and from off-campus facilities shall be in accordance with the directions of the activity coach.
    Guidelines are as follows:
    1.
    Make certain that you wear all equipment that is issued by the coach. Advise the coach of any
    poorly fitted or defective equipment.
    2.
    Advise the coach if you are ill or have any prolonged symptoms of illness.
    3.
    Advise the coach if you have been injured.
    4.
    Engage in warm-up activities prior to strenuous participation.
    5.
    Be alert for any physical hazards in the locker room or in or around the participation area.
    Advise coach of any hazard.
    6.
    Recognize your surroundings; i.e., batters warming up, thrown bats, batted or thrown balls,
    on-deck circles (one person at a time).
    7.
    Use hard hats while batting/running bases/hitting in batting cages (baseball).
    8.
    Familiarize yourself with surroundings and grounds; i.e., fences, field conditions such as holes,
    lips on infield edges, etc., when playing on away fields.
    9.
    Be aware of the potentially serious injuries to your ankles, knees, and legs if you do not follow
    the correct procedures in base running. Sliding headfirst into bases should be avoided.
    10. Follow instructions regarding communication between players; i.e., talking and calling each
    other off on "pop flies" and Texas leaguers, etc.
    The above information has been explained to me and I understand the list of rules and procedures. I also
    understand the necessity of using the proper techniques while participating in the baseball program.
