Question on Case Book Situation 2.8.5

[Judtech]

I believe that is a change from what was discussed earlier. If memory serves, originially the onus was on the official to determine if the player was 'healthy' enough to re enter a game. THAT was a huge liability issue for officials. Now the coach and training staff assume to risk and liability if the player re enters the game. As officials we are not as well trained to diagnose concussions as the training/medical staff. Now if the player is at the table to enter the game, as officials we can reasonably assume that this player has been cleared by the TRAINED medical peronsell. (that is not to say you won't get named in a lawsuit. Any member of the bar worth their power tie would put the coach, trainer, AD, Prinicpal, School District, Superintendant, officials, assignor (if applicable) officiating association (if applicable) and the State HS governing body)
On a side note, has anyone heard about a company who comes in and gives baseline readings for athletes and trains the training staff about concussions. If there is a concern of a player being concussed the training staff can give the tests and compare them to baseline? Some officials were talking about it this weekend and one of them said it was on 1K. Any info?
