Concussion Management

Health and safety of our athletes is important to us. Our concussion management protocol outlines the Fresno State Club Sports program's philosophical approach to prevent further injury, advise health care, and support our athletes.

Fresno State Club Sports Concussion Management "Protocol"

After sustaining a head injury, check for concussion symptoms:

  • Loss of consciousness
  • Seizure
  • Nausea and/or vomiting
  • Irritability
  • Sadness
  • Fatigue
  • Headache
  • Dizziness
  • Confusion
  • and/or many others

 

If affected by any of the listed symptoms, do the following:

  • Remove yourself from competition and/or practice and seek immediate medical evaluation.
  • Notify your coach and the Club Sports Office at 559.278.2741.
  • Take the “Removal From Play/Learn” notification form when you visit your private licensed physician or the Fresno State Student Health Center.

If diagnosed:

  • If diagnosed with a concussion, bring a signed copy of the “Removal From Play/Learn” notification form to the Club Sports Office in RSU 314. Club Sports will assist you in notifying your team coach, captain and current instructors.

Why have a licensing program?

A trademark licensing program gives the University control over its logos and marks, thus, ensuring the quality and consistency of all of the University's merchandise.

What qualifies as a trademark?

Any mark, logo, symbol, nickname, letter(s), word(s) or combination of these that can be associated with the University qualifies as a trademark.

What about using the University's name or logo on a website?

Every use of the University's trademarks requires permission from the University and the Licensing Coordinator. The World Wide Web has made it easy for alumni, fans and supporters to build web pages with the University's name and logos, and the University appreciates this support. However, federal trademark laws require that the University control its name and marks; therefore, the University must be very selective in granting permission in these, and all, instances. For more information, contact the University's Licensing Coordinator, Clarence Chiong at cchiong@csufresno.edu.

How does this affect Club Sports teams?

Club Sports teams who wish to use any trademarked or federally registered University wording, logos or symbols, including their own team logo, must get prior approval from Clarence Chiong at cchiong@csufresno.edu and also submit a Royalty Waiver Form.

To request insurance certifications or proof of insurance for use of an off campus facility, send an email request to Lisa Kao, lisak@csufresno.edu, and copy John Hung, jhung@csufresno.eduIn your email, include a copy of the facility use agreement, the dates of use, and the facility point of contact.

The insurance provided by the Club Sports Program provides coverage in addition to your personal/primary insurance. If an athlete does not have personal/primary insurance, the Club Sports insurance may provide coverage for incidents resulting from participation in Club Sports activities.  

The Accident/Incident Report for Non-Employees (please refer to "Related Links" in the column to the right) must be filled out and submitted along with the Athlete Accident Claim Form.
