Sounds reasonable even if not required. Any coach who tried that would be foolish since not only would he be risking further damage to his player, he could also face huge liabilities, probably void any professional insurance he has to cover himself if he gets sued, and has just violated school policies in most school districts as well as violated the law in states like Texas.

A trainer or other medical staff (EMT, Dr.) is required at every upper level game in TX and a lot of schools are using the new pre & post baseline testing that is done now. Not to bad for a state once known for all day practices in 110° weather with no water breaks. Oh, and "don't forget to take your salt pills, boys!"
