What is SVHS’ policy in regards to injuries players sustain?
If an injury requires medical evaluation by a physician, a player should not return to playing the activity until a dated note or letter is provided by a doctor, either identifying when the player can return or stating that the player is fit to play. Additional procedure instructions may also be provided by the specific coach or sponsor. A coach may, for example, require an athlete to check with a physician before being allowed to return to practice if the athlete has complained about a pain for several days.
