3) If an injury needs to be addressed by a professional, the coaches can recommend places or the family chooses the professional doctor needed.
4) Injuries that will keep athletes from practicing for more than 3 days must be attended by a professional.
5) A doctor’s release must be brought to the coaches for injuries attended by a medical professional.
6) Icing and stretching are the immediate procedures to be followed with an injury.
7) Injured athletes are to attend practices (but not participate until cleared medically) and help with the practices or walk around the track, lift weights, ride bikes, swim, etc.
8) Injured athletes must not try to participate in a workout without clearing with Coach Wu. If they start a workout, they are expected to finish it.
