Procedures for Verifying Eligibility 2009-2010
The following information will be initiated immediately to ensure that eligibility for
all athletic participants will be verified and coaches, athletic coordinators, and
athletic directors will be directly accountable for the implementation of this
procedure.
This information will be placed in the Coaches Athletic Handbook for the 20092010 school year and will be an agenda item at every weekly high school
campus coordinator’s meeting and monthly agenda item for the middle school
campus coordinators.
1. The athletic director is responsible for ensuring that each campus coordinator
(middle and high school) has verified team eligibility each six weeks grading
period with all head coaches. This will be done by receiving a copy of the
Eligibility Status Report each six weeks grading period from each head coach
in the school.
2. The athletic director will review on a weekly basis the eligibility timelines with
each campus coordinator so they can review this information with each coach
in their building.
3. The campus coordinator (middle and high school) is responsible for verifying
that all athletes are eligible to participate. He will do this by receiving from each
head coach a copy of the Eligibility Status Report for each 6 week grading
period on the Tuesday following the end of the 6 week grading period. The high
school campus coordinator will submit these reports on that same Tuesday to
the athletic director. The middle school campus coordinator will submit these
reports via fax or email to the athletic director or that same Tuesday.
4. The head coach shall delegate to an assistant coach the responsibility of
checking all grades for team members as a means of double checking the six
week eligibility of all team members.
5. Head coaches are to closely follow Academic Eligibility for Extra-Curricular
Activities dates to ensure that all participants who have lost or regained
eligibility are tracked and that timelines for this are strictly followed.

ALDINE ISD HEAT ILLNESS PREVENTION PRACTICES
•All coaches and athletic trainers are trained to recognize the signs and
symptoms of heat illnesses so that the can take action before a situation
becomes dangerous
•Student-athletes are not to practice outdoors between the hours of 11:30 am
and 4:00 pm on days when the temperature exceeds 95 degrees. This does
not include Athletic periods.
•Student-athletes have access to water and ice at all times. Our goal is to
have each student-athlete consume a minimum of 8 ounces of water every
15 minutes. Never refuse water to a student-athlete that requests it.
•Coaches schedule frequent breaks. A minimum of 15 minutes should be set
aside for every 90 minute practice period for breaks.
•Coaches should monitor the weather (temperature, heat index, ozone,
storms, etc.) and adjust on the field practice times as needed.
•Each campus has ample supplies of ice, water, coolers, and water bottles
for each practice.
UIL LIGHTNING POLICY
Recommendations for Lightning Safety
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Establish a chain of command that identifies who is to make the call to remove
individuals from the field.
Name a designated weather watcher (A person who actively looks for the
signs of threatening weather and notifies the chain of command if severe
weather becomes dangerous).
Have a means of monitoring local weather forecasts and warnings.
Designate a safe shelter for each venue.
Use the Flash-to-Bang count to determine when to go to safety. By the time
the flash-to-bang count approaches thirty seconds all individuals should be
already inside a safe structure.
Once activities have been suspended, wait at least thirty minutes following the
last sound of thunder or lightning flash prior to resuming an activity or
returning outdoors.
Avoid being the highest point in an open field, in contact with, or proximity to
the highest point, as well as being on the open water. Do not take shelter
under or near trees, flagpoles, or light poles.
•
Assume the lightning safe position (crouched on the ground weight on the
balls of the feet, feet together, head lowered, and ears covered) for
individuals who feel their hair stand on end, skin tingle, or hear "crackling"
noises. Do not lie flat on the ground.
•
Observe basic first aid procedures in managing victims of a lightning strike.
•
All individuals have the right to leave an athletic site in order to seek a safe
structure if the person feels in danger of impending lightning activity, without
fear of repercussions or penalty from anyone.
Lightning Definitions
Safe Shelter:
A safe location is any substantial, frequently inhabited building. The building should
have four solid walls (not a dug out), electrical and telephone wiring, as well as
plumbing, all of which aid in grounding a structure.
The secondary choice for a safer location from the lightning hazard is a fully
enclosed vehicle with a metal roof and the windows completely closed. It is
important to not touch any part of the metal framework of the vehicle while inside it
during ongoing thunderstorms.
It is not safe to shower, bathe, or talk on landline phones while inside of a safe
shelter during thunderstorms (cell phones are ok).
Flash-to-Bang:
To use the flash-to-bang method, begin counting when sighting a lightning flash.
Counting is stopped when the associated bang (thunder) is heard. Divide this count
by five to determine the distance to the lightning flash (in miles). For example, a
flash-to-bang count of thirty seconds equates to a distance of six miles. Lightning
has struck from as far away as 10 miles from the storm center.
Postpone or suspend activity if a thunderstorm appears imminent before or during
an activity or contest (irrespective of whether lightning is seen or thunder heard)
until the hazard has passed. Signs of imminent thunderstorm activity are darkening
clouds, high winds, and thunder or lightning activity.
OZONE
ALDINE ISD POLICY FOR DIETARY SUPPLEMENTS
School district coaches are not to in any way encourage student-athletes to take
any dietary supplements. Student-athletes should be counseled on proper
diet and exercise as a means to promote better performance. Studentathletes that require dietary supplements should do so only under the advice
of a physician.
ALDINE ISD POLICY FOR DISPENSING MEDICATIONS TO STUDENTATHLETES
Athletic Trainers are given permission to dispense medications to student-athletes
under the advice and consent of their team physician.
Coaches are never permitted to dispense medications to students at any time.
This includes both prescription and over the counter medications.
HIPAA Position Statement
of the Aldine I.S.D. Athletic Department
The medical information privacy sections of the Health Insurance Portability and
Accountability Act (HIPAA) do not apply to the medical information or medical
histories kept by the Aldine Independent School District (AISD) regarding its studentathletes. Every effort will be made to maintain strict confidentiality of these
medical records. However, an open line of communication must be maintained
between all AISD employees determined to have legitimate educational
interests and the student-athlete’s parents/guardians. This is done in order to
protect and provide for the well being and safety of the student-athlete.
Therefore, it is the position of the Aldine I.S.D. Athletic Department that under the
Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), any and all medical records
kept by the AISD Athletic Department will be regarded as educational information
about the student-athlete, and may be shared with fellow AISD faculty, staff,
and administration, including team affiliated physicians. The disclosure must
be made to a person who is reasonably able to prevent or lessen a serious and
imminent threat to the health and safety of the student-athlete.
The Aldine Independent School District, its faculty, staff and Board of Trustees will be
held harmless as a result of breech or perceived breech of HIPAA Medical
Information Privacy Codes, and will additionally maintain its governmental right to
sovereign immunity under the law as a state entity.
Effective April 14, 2003.
“Clearance” Requirements for Student Athletes
•
•
No student can be issued equipment, participate during an athletic
period or after school without being cleared.
For an athlete to be “clear” to participate, they must turn in the following:
• completed physical and medical history with staff signature
• UIL Steroid Form (HS ONLY)
• all necessary parent/student signatures in the packet
• Completed Insurance information
1. If the student does have their own insurance, completed insurance

insurance company phone number). The form must be notarized!
2. If the student does not have their own insurance, they must
purchase the school insurance only with a check or money order
made payable to the Insurance company----NO CASH!!!! If school
insurance is purchased, no notary is needed. Insurance can also
be purchased online through the insurance company website.
www.macori.com/aisd
• Emergency Card
•
NO TRYOUT FORMS!
•
No student travels with a team without an emergency card. This means
managers must have emergency cards as well. It is the COACHES’
responsibility to make sure they are completely filled out and to bring them
to every competition. In case of an emergency, they can then get the
appropriate medical care and parents can be reached.
•
All cleared student-athletes will be activated in the RANK ONE system.
http://www.rankonesport.com/
NO MORE SQUAD LISTS.
1. Active/NonActive Students
2. Building a Sport Roster
The SPORT ROSTER should be completed prior to the team’s first
competition/game.
•
Assistant coaches are in charge of making sure the athletes on their
assigned team are clear and have emergency cards. However, it is each
HEAD COACH’S responsibility to make sure that their assistants have
done this.
•
If you have any questions, please ask your sports’ head coach, campus
coordinator, or refer to your coaches’ handbook.
