Arizona


Arizona

   Parents of students who participate in school athletics must sign an annual information form that states their awareness of the dangers of concussions. 
   A student must be removed from an athletic event, practice or other interscholastic athletic event, practice or other interscholastic athletic activity if the student is suspected of having sustained a concussion. A coach, official, licensed healthcare provider or parent from the student's team is allowed to remove a student athlete from play if a concussion is suspected. A student athlete may return to play the same day if a licensed health care provider rules out a suspected concussion at the time of the student's removal; a student may return to play on a subsequent day only with written permission from a licensed health care provider.
