1. Should an injury occur to a player on the field, or a person while at any SLYSA facility, the facility manager is available for assistance. If a player is injured and does not get up on their own, DO NOT MOVE THE PLAYER/PERSON until an evaluation is completed.
IF YOU SUSPECT A LIFE THREATENING EMERGENCY CALL 911.
2. An evaluation must be performed on the injured person to determine how they will come off the field. There are only three choices after the evaluation is completed.
- The person can walk off to the sideline by themselves.
- The person is injured, however able to get up or be placed on the Med-gator to go to the sideline for further first aid, evaluation, or observation.
- The person has a serious injury and should not be moved, assistance is needed from Professional Medical Staff, and we must wait for the ambulance to arrive at the field to assist in treatment.
3. Facility manager or field marshall will not leave the injured person for any reason; if more help is needed they will radio and get further assistance. This person is the link between the injured person and the arriving medical support staff.
4. Facility management will meet the emergency vehicle at the front of the park and escort them using the quickest route that gets them as close as possible to the injured person.
