Answer Required
In order to monitor head injuries with the possibility of concussions sustained by our studentathletes, we have acquired a software tool called ImPACT (Immediate Post Concussion Assessment and Cognitive Testing). If an athlete is believed to have suffered a head injury during competition, ImPACT is designed to aid in the determination of the severity of the head injury and when the injury has fully healed. I understand that Paramus Catholic requires this test for participation in the following sports/activities: Basketball, Football, Ice Hockey, Lacrosse, Soccer, Wrestling, Baseball, Cheerleading, Softball, Ultimate Frisbee, Volleyball, and Dance, as well as High Jump and Pole Vault for Track. Student athletes will not be allowed to participate in these sports/events/activities without completing the pre-season baseline test.*
Answer Required
Any student-athlete who is seen by a doctor for a medical condition or injury during the school year, must provide written clearance from a doctor to continue with sports, physical education or other extra-curricular activities.*
Answer Required
I waive any claim against PARAMUS CATHOLIC and THE ARCHDIOCESE OF NEWARK, its agents, employees or representatives for any damages for injuries said child might sustain while participating in above-mentioned sports. I understand I am liable for any expenses incurred for injuries connected with participation in sports which are not covered by any insurance policy which is in force at the time of the injury. I give permission for first aid to be rendered in case of accident to my child and also immediate hospitalization if necessary for emergency treatment at the nearest available hospital.*
Answer Required
We are aware that all athletic activity includes the potential for injury. We acknowledge that even with the best coaching, use of protective equipment and strict observance of rules, injuries are still a possibility. On rare occasions these injuries can be so severe as to result in total disability, paralysis, or even death. We acknowledge that we have read and understand this warning. Parent’s health insurance is primary in case of accident or injury. The Newark Archdiocese purchases a limited secondary insurance policy for all interscholastic sports.*

NJSIAA STEROID TESTING POLICY CONSENT TO RANDOM TESTING
In Executive Order 72, issued December 20, 2005, Governor Richard Codey directed the New Jersey Department of Education to work in conjunction with the New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association (NJSIAA) to develop and implement a program of random testing for steroids, of teams and individuals qualifying for championship games.
Beginning in the Fall, 2006 sports season, any student-athlete who possesses, distributes, ingests or otherwise uses any of the banned substances on the attached page, without written prescription by a fully-licensed physician, as recognized by the American Medical Association, to treat a medical condition, violates the NJSIAA’s sportsmanship rule, and is subject to NJSIAA penalties, including ineligibility from competition. The NJSIAA will test certain randomly selected individuals and teams that qualify for a state championship tournament or state championship competition for banned substances. The results of all tests shall be considered confidential and shall only be disclosed to the student, his or her parents and his or her school. No student may participate in NJSIAA competition unless the student and the student’s parent/guardian consent to random testing.
By acknowledging below, we consent to random testing in accordance with the NJSIAA steroid testing policy. We understand that, if the student or the student’s team qualifies for a state championship tournament or state championship competition, the student may be subject to testing for banned substances.
