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.

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.

The purpose of this WARNING is also to aid you in making an informed decision as to whether you (or your child or ward) should participate in this athletic activity and, as a condition of such participation, sign the foregoing ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF HAZARDS AND RISKS CONNECTED WITH PARTICIPATION IN Baseball. In addition, its purpose is to make you aware that as a student-athlete (or as a parent or guardian of a student-athlete), it is your responsibility to learn about and/or ask coaches, physicians, or other knowledgeable persons about any concerns that you might have at any time regarding athletic safety and participation in the community college’s Baseball program.

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.

Pre-existing medical conditions, including illness, disease, and prior injuries can be aggravated or cause other injuries while engaged in the sport of Golf. 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.

Golf injuries can result from the use of correct or incorrect golfing techniques while playing the game or during practices or instruction. There is also the possibility of injury 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 and/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 Golf games and other related activities also involves a risk of injury or death.

The purpose of this WARNING is to bring to your attention 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.

Soccer is a VIOLENT CONTACT sport. As in all sports, Soccer involves the RISKS OF SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. Because it is a sport involving contact, Soccer, more so than other contact sports, involves the risk of serious injury to virtually every part of the human anatomy. 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 Soccer 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.

Soccer players are also susceptible to injury or death resulting from such causes as heat stroke, hear failure, asthmatic attack, sickle cell crisis, congenital brain defects, and from natural causes or other congenital problems.

Pre-existing medical conditions, including illness, disease, and prior injuries can be aggravated or cause other injuries while engaged in the sport of Soccer. 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.

Soccer 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 goals, and other solid objects in and around the Soccer 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 Soccer 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.

Tennis is a competitive net, ball and racket sport. As in all sports, Tennis involves the RISKS OF SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. Common injuries sustained as a result of participating in Tennis are to the arm and elbow, the ankle and feet, the shoulder and low back, the knee, the wrist and hand, the eyes and the neck. The most common Tennis injury is to the elbow – “Tennis elbow” – which is the result of repeated extension of the wrist. Injury to the shoulder generally occurs as a result of the service motion. “Tennis shoulder” is a drooped shoulder caused by stretching the large shoulder muscles and is a deformity often occurring in professional players and amateur players who have competed for many years. Eye injuries typically occur when struck by a served ball or when struck by a returned ball while rushing or playing the net. Nerve stretching in the neck can occur when performing the backhand stroke. Miscellaneous Tennis injuries may occur from striking net standards or from sliding as a result of debris on the court. 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.
