How does Sportball accommodate children who have allergies?
Our administrators and coaches promote a food free atmosphere. Parents are asked not to bring food products into any Sportball facility. Our policies require parents not to allow food with nuts to be taken to a Sportball venue. Registration forms require allergy information. Coaches and administrators work collaboratively to ensure that children with allergies are protected. Coaches are trained to use the Epi-pen in case of an emergency where a child may be anaphylactic (a severe life threatening reaction to an allergen) Children are not permitted to share drinks at water break. Coaches are CPR and First Aid Certified. Allergy Alerts will be handed out to participate in a class at the request of parents.
