Our flag football clinics are led by our BGA football staff and are designed to help players build both confidence and fundamentals in a fun, supportive environment. Each week includes a mix of skill development and rules instruction, followed by organized scrimmages where players can apply what they’ve learned in game situations.

Dates: Fridays from 3/27 to 5/22 - excluding Good Friday (4/3).
Times: 5:15-6:45pm
Location: Middle School Practice Field

We will provide flags, so no need to bring anything other than water!

Concussion Waiver

A concussion is a type of traumatic brain injury that changes the way the brain normally works. A concussion is caused by bump, blow, or jolt to the head or body that causes the head and brain to move rapidly back and forth. Even a ding, getting your bell rung or what seems to be a mild bump or blow to the head can be serious. Signs and symptoms of concussion can show up right after the injury or may not appear or be noticed until days or weeks after the injury. If an athlete reports one or more symptoms of concussion listed below after a bump, blow, or jolt to the head or body, the player should be kept out of the play the day of the injury and until a health care professional, experienced in evaluating for concussion, says the player is symptom-free and it's ok to return to play. SIGNS OBSERVED BY COACHING STAFF Appears dazed or stunned In confused about assignment or position Forgets an instruction Is unsure of game, score or opponent Moves clumsily Answers questions slowly Loses consciousness even briefly Shows mood, behavior, or personality changes Can't recall events prior to hit or fall Can't recall events after hit or fall SYMPTOMS REPORTED BY ATHLETES: Headache or pressure in head Nausea or vomiting Balance problems or dizziness Double or blurry vision Sensitivity to light Sensitivity to noise Feeling sluggish, hazy, foggy, or groggy Concentration or memory problems Confusion Just not feeling right or feeling down CONCUSSION DANGER SIGNS In rare cases, a dangerous blood clot may form on the brain in a person with a concussion and crowd the brain against the skull. A player should receive immediate medical attention if after a bump, blow, or jolt to the head or body the player exhibits any of the following danger signs: One pupil larger than the other Is drowsy or cannot be awakened A headache that not only does not diminish, but gets worse Weakness, numbness, or decreased coordination Repeated vomiting or nausea Slurred speech Convulsions or seizures Cannot recognize people or places Becomes increasingly confused, restless or agitated Has unusual behavior Loses consciousness even a brief loss of consciousness should be taken seriously WHY SHOULD A PLAYER REPORT THEIR SYMPTOMS? If a player has a concussion, the brain needs time to heal. While a player's brain is still healing, they are much more likely to have another concussion. Repeat concussions can increase the time it takes to recover. In rare cases, repeat concussions in young players can result in brain swelling or permanent damage to their brain. They can even be fatal. WHAT SHOULD YOU DO IF YOUR THINK YOUR PLAYER HAS A CONCUSSION? If you suspect that a player has a concussion, remove the player from play and seek medical attention. Do not try to judge the severity of the injury yourself. Keep the player out of play the day of the injury and until a health care professional, experienced in evaluating for concussion, says the player is symptom-free and it's ok to return to play. Rest is key to helping a player recover from a concussion. Exercising or activities that involve a lot of concentration, such as studying, working on the computer, or playing video games, may cause concussion symptoms to reappear or get worse. After a concussion, returning to sports and school is a gradual process that should be carefully managed and monitored by a healthcare professional. IF A PARTICIPANT IS DIAGNOSED WITH A CONCUSSION, A PHYSICIAN NOTE IS REQUIRED BEFORE THE CAMPER MAY RETURN TO PARTICIPATE IN CAMP. I CONFIRM THAT I HAVE READ ALL THE ABOVE CONCUSSION INFORMATION AND HAVE DISCUSSED IT WITH MY SON/DAUGHTER.
