We have been notified that there is some confusion on the ImPACT Concussion Baseline Testing. Hopefully this will clear up that confusion . 1. All 2014-15 Aquin Athletes participating in 5th-12th grade athletic programs MUST have an ImPACT Concussion Baseline Test. 2. This test MUST be administered with a Monroe Clinic trainer present and we are therefore limited by their availability. 3. The baseline test is being done for the safety of your athlete. If he or she would incur a head trauma during the next year, this baseline provides Monroe Clinic with a reference of his or her normal brain activity. Monroe Clinic trainers will then release the athlete when he or she can perform the test again at the baseline level. 4. To establish an accurate baseline, it should be completed before any hitting or brain trauma during a practice occurs. 5. The 2nd and Final session for ImPACT Baseline Testing has been scheduled for Tuesday, August 12. We currently have 90 athletes left who need to take the baseline. To keep waiting to a minimum, we would request that you bring your athlete in the following time slots. If you cant make the time listed that corresponds with your athlete (or have siblings in 2 time slots), then come when it works for you. Please enter through the gym lobby doors and come to the High School Library. 9:00am . all remaining athletes in 4th-7th grade who didnt attend on Thursday, August 7 10:30am . all athletes in 8th-12th grade who didnt attend on Thursday, August 7 or who didnt complete a baseline in 2013-14 baseline tests are good for 2 years 6. If your athlete only participates in a winter or spring sport, please still bring him or her on Tuesday. We want to complete all baseline tests on Tuesday for 2014-15. 7. Please share this information with any Tri-County, Immanuel, Open Bible or home-schooled athletes who may be participating in ANY Aquin Athletics in 2014-15. Thanks for your cooperation. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me or Mr. Courtney ([email protected]).
