The student-athlete shall be a high school graduate, or the class year of which they were a member shall have graduated. The student-athlete shall be enrolled in an NWAC member college within twenty (20) calendar school days from the beginning of the quarter to participate during that quarter. This provision shall apply for all terms – fall, winter, spring, and summer. Should the term involve a split session, this provision shall apply from the first day of class of the first session. The student-athlete shall not have participated in any one sport for more than two (2) seasons at any post-secondary educational institution. After a student-athlete completes two (2) seasons of participation at a NWAC member institution and transfers and competes in another intercollegiate program, he or she may not compete further at any NWAC institution. The student-athlete shall be officially enrolled in a minimum of twelve (12) quarter credit hours or the equivalent of classes as defined in the curriculum of the member college during the sport season in which they participate. Such enrollment shall be required for non-conference and post-season participation. For any student-athlete who has never participated in collegiate athletics and used college eligibility in a sport, there will be no credit requirement from the previous quarter/semester. Any student-athlete at any member institution or transferring into any member institution who has played a year in a sport, will be required to have passed ten (10) or more credits the previous term prior to being eligible their second season of participation in that sport or their first season of a different sport. Note: The ten (10) credit previous term rule would not apply to any student-athlete who participated outside of the NWAC in one sport but transfers to a NWAC institution to participate in another sport where Article III, section F. 1 would apply. To qualify for eligibility to participate in a second (2nd) season of any sport, a student-athlete must: Have earned a minimum of thirty-six (36) quarter credit hours or the equivalent, beginning with and including the first quarter (the quarter of the sport season’s official start date) of the first season of participation. (NOTE: Credits from a course repeated to raise a grade of D or higher do not count toward the 36 credit requirement. Exception: prerequisite courses that require a higher grade for advancement in an academic subject [e.g. math, English] shall be included in the cumulative credit requirement.) OR Have earned a minimum of: 36 quarter credit hours before entering fall quarter of their second year for fall quarter eligibility 48 quarter credit hours before entering winter quarter of their second year for winter quarter eligibility 60 quarter credit hours before entering spring quarter for spring quarter eligibility. For student‐athletes who enroll full‐time after fall quarter of their first year of eligibility, the total credit hours required for second year participation will be pro‐rated based on the average of 12 credits per term. (e.g. basketball player who is a first‐time college enrollee in winter quarter, not fall) Maintain a cumulative grade point average of 2.00 during any quarter of participation. The 2.00 GPA must be for all college credits attempted and earned beginning with the first academic quarter of enrollment in the first year of participation. IMPORTANT NOTE: If you are transferring to Bellevue College from another college, you must have an official transcript ON FILE at Bellevue College prior to participating. Also, an athletic tracer report from each college previously attended will need to be on file in our athletics office.

This plan is provided at NO COST to student-athletes, managers and athletic trainers. The plan covers student-athletes participating in intercollegiate athletics, practices, games and travel to and from the athletic event under college supervision. If you or your family has medical insurance coverage, that insurance is considered the primary coverage. This means that any bills must be submitted to your insurance first, then to the athletic insurance. Bellevue College Athletics does not have the option of waiving the requirement to file with your insurance company. If you do not have other accidental injury coverage, then the sports injury insurance is your primary coverage. This insurance does not cover ordinary health care needs, for example, colds, flu, shots, etc. Unless you have full coverage under your family’s policy, you may wish to get other student insurance that is available on campus. Contact the Cashier’s Office of the college for information. There is a $500 deductible per injury. After the deductible has been met, benefits are payable for medical expenses beginning within 90 days from the injury date and incurred within a 104-week period from the date of accident, up to a maximum of $25,000. For other specifics regarding your coverage benefits, exclusions and limitations, please refer to the current sports injury insurance brochure available in the Athletics office. PROCEDURES Emergency – All local emergencies are normally handled through the Overlake Hospital Emergency Room. Non-emergency care – Head athletic trainer will evaluate all injuries when present and, when necessary, make a referral to appropriate health care provider. An Accident Claim Form must be completed and provided to the athletics office as soon as possible following your injury. The forms are available in the Athletics office. Once the form has been completed and signed by the athletics program coordinator, copies will be given to you and the claim form should then be given to each of the medical providers you have seen. Itemized medical bills are submitted electronically by the doctor’s office to the athletic injury insurance company, along with information about what your insurance company may have already paid. You will receive an Explanation of Benefits (“EOB”) statement from your insurance company which explains what your insurance has paid on the bill and the balance due, or if the claim has been denied. Representatives of the athletic injury insurance company may contact you if there are any questions or problems with the claim. If you have questions, you also may contact them at Summit America Insurance Services, PO Box 25936, Overland Park, KS 66225. Their toll free number is 1-877-246-6997, or online at http://www.summitamerica-ins.com This can be a lengthy process. From date of injury to the point where all payments have been made to your medical provider can take quite a bit of time, and for this reason, it is very important that you submit your claim as soon as possible.

The sport-specific warning and consent field will display below when you have selected your sport:W A R N I N G Participation in any athletic activity may involve injury of some type to either yourself or a fellow student athlete. Such injury can include direct physical and possibly crippling injury to one’s body. There is also the possibility of suffering emotional distress or psychological injury as a result of witnessing or actually inflicting injury to another. The severity of such injury can range from minor cuts, scrapes, bruises, muscle strains, or bone fractures and dislocations to catastrophic injury, such as complete paralysis, or even death. Such injury can impair one’s general physical and mental health and hinder one’s future ability to earn a living, to engage in other business, social, and recreational activities, and generally to enjoy life. Baseball is a competitive ball and bat team sport. As in all sports, Baseball involves the RISKS OF SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. Injuries in this sport are common, and occur to all parts of the body, including the head and neck, shoulders, arms, chest, hands and fingers, hips and legs, knees, and ankles and feet. These risks of injury in the sport of Baseball include the possibility of: injury to the neck and spinal column or cord, resulting in complete or partial paralysis; injury to the head, resulting in brain damage; and injury to the body’s bones, joints, ligaments, muscles, tendons, and other aspects of the musculoskeletal system. Injury to the body’s nerves, the heart and blood vessels, and other internal or reproductive organs is also possible. Such injuries may cause temporary disability or can result in permanent impairment. Pitchers, in particular, are susceptible to shoulder and arm injuries. Fatalities in Baseball typically are caused by direct blows to the chest from a struck or pitched ball or from head and neck injuries caused by being hit with baseballs or bats or by colliding with other players. Pre-existing medical conditions, including illness, disease, and prior injuries can be aggravated or cause other injuries while engaged in the sport of Baseball. Use of drugs, alcohol, or medications can contribute to injury or illness while participating in athletic activity. Some injuries may be caused as a result of poor physical conditioning and overexertion. Such overexertion can result in injury to muscles, the heart, and other body parts, resulting in sprains and strains, cardiac or cardiopulmonary arrest, and other medical conditions. Baseball injuries can also result from the use of correct or incorrect playing techniques used in tryouts, practices, warm-ups, drills, games, plays, or other similar undertakings. Injury to the head or other parts of the body can result from contact with other participants, the playing surface, training equipment, the backstop, and other solid objects in and around the Baseball field. Injury can result from the improper fit of equipment, from defective or worn-out equipment, and from otherwise wearing and/or failing to use Baseball equipment or other protective gear. Injury can result from training room procedures; from the use of training equipment; from the administration of first aid; or from failing to follow game, training, safety or other team rules. Injury may result from the use of playing techniques taught or from teaching methods employed by the coaches of this community college. The use of transportation provided or arranged by the College to and from Baseball games and other related activities also involves a risk of injury or death.

Golf is a competitive outdoor sport. As in all sports, Golf involves the RISKS OF SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. Injuries in this sport are common, and occur to all parts of the body, including the head and neck, shoulders, arms, chest, hands and fingers, hips and legs, knees, and ankles and feet. Common injuries stained as a result of participating in Golf are principally located in the lower back and in the wrist, left hand, and left shoulder (for right-handed golfers). The elbow, neck, and knees are also common sites of injury to golfers. Typical types of injuries occur during the impact of follow-through phases of the golf swing. The repetitive nature of the golf swing and contact with something other than the ball during the swing are the principle injury mechanisms. The most common cause of serious physical injury or death involves being struck by a golf club, golf ball, or lightning. Slipping or falling due to uneven terrain or wearing golf shoes on a smooth surface can result in injury. Heat stroke or heart failure may similarly result in serious injury or death. Such injuries may cause temporary disability or can result in permanent impairment.

The ankle and foot, knee, low back, shoulder, elbow wrist and fingers are examples of typical injury locations. Bruises, scrapes, strains and sprains are common types of injury. Less common but possible injuries are fractures, ligament and cartilage damage and concussions. These risks of injury in the sport of Volleyball include the possibility of: injury to the neck and spinal column or cord, resulting in complete or partial paralysis; injury to the head, resulting in brain damage; and injury to the body’s bones, joints, ligaments, muscles, tendons, and other aspects of the musculoskeletal system. Injury to the body’s nerves, the heart and blood vessels, and other internal or reproductive organs is also possible. Such injuries may cause temporary disability or can result in permanent impairment. Pre-existing medical conditions, including illness, disease, and prior injuries can be aggravated or cause other injuries while engaged in the sport of Volleyball. Use of drugs, alcohol, or medications can contribute to injury or illness while participating in athletic activity. Some injuries may be caused as a result of poor physical conditioning and overexertion. Such overexertion can result in injury to muscles, the heart, and other body parts, resulting in sprains and strains, cardiac or cardiopulmonary arrest, and other medical conditions. Volleyball injuries can also result from the use of correct or incorrect playing techniques used in tryouts, practices, warm-ups, drills, games, plays, or other similar undertakings. Injury to the head or other parts of the body can result from contact with other participants, the playing surface, training equipment and other solid objects in and around the Volleyball court. Injury can result from the improper fit of equipment, from defective or worn-out equipment, and from otherwise wearing and/or failing to use Volleyball equipment or other protective gear. Injury can result from training room procedures; from the use of training equipment; from the administration of first aid; or from failing to follow game, training, safety or other team rules. Injury may result from the use of playing techniques taught or from teaching methods employed by the coaches of this community college. The use of transportation provided or arranged by the College to and from Volleyball games and other related activities also involves a risk of injury or death. The purpose of this WARNNG is to bring your attention to the existence of potential dangers associated with athletic participation. There is, however, always the risk of other types of injuries or the risk of injury or death resulting from other causes not specified here.
