RULES FOR SCHOOL SPORTS
AT GREEN MOUNTAIN UNION HIGH SCHOOL
If your student would like to participate in any sports activities after school, please remember to set up an appointment for a sports physical. Every student that participates in sports is required to have a sports physical every two years; however, they are required to have sports paperwork completed annually.
You can find one in the "Health Forms" Tab (see top of page) or
Athletics Section on the GM Main Web Page.
If you have questions, please see this nurse or the school coaches for more information regarding this topic. If you have general questions please see below:
Frequently Asked School Sports Questions
Vermont signed into law by the governor on May 31, 2011 (Act 58) S 100 requires education of coaches, youth athletes and their parents/guardians about the nature and risk of concussions and requires them to sign a concussion information form.
A youth athlete with a concussion must be cleared by a licensed health care professional trained in the evaluation and management of concussions before returning to play or practice.
The Vermont Department of Health has a link to Actions to Healthy Kids, which provides information regarding the necessity for being physically fit in order to perform better in school.
