Concussion Awareness Resources and Code of Conduct for Coaches & Officials

Concussion Awareness Resources and Code of Conduct for Coaches & OfficialsMuaythai Ontario2022-03-22T10:24:58-04:00
1 Member Information
2 Concussion Awareness Resources
3 Concussion Code of Conduct
  • Participation in any sport or physical activity carries with it the risk of injury. Concussions are an injury specific to the brain, and Ontario's Rowan's Law bring awareness to concussions and concussion safety. New regulation and legislation in Ontario requires that:

    1. Athletes, parents of athletes under 18, coaches, and officials confirm every year that they have reviewed Ontario’s concussion awareness resources;
    2. Members follow a removal-from-sport and return-to-sport protocol; and
    3. Members follow a Concussion Code of Conduct that sets out rules of behaviour to support concussion prevention.

    Muaythai Ontario takes concussion safety seriously; by law all Coaches and Officials already registered with Muaythai Ontario for 2022 must sign off on the concussion resources and Concussion Code of Conduct to participate in sanctioned activity.

  • Please select the concussion awareness resources below that are appropriate for the member's age. The resources will open in a new tab, after which you can come back and complete your membership form

  • Ages 15 and Up
    Ages 11 to 14
    Ages 10 and Under

  • Concussion Code of Conduct for Coaches & Officials

    I will help prevent concussions through my

    • • Efforts to ensure Athletes wear the proper equipment and wear it correctly;
    • • Efforts to help Athletes develop their skills and strength so they can participate to the best of their abilities;
    • • Respect for the rules of my sport and ensure that my athletes do, too; and
    • • My commitment to fair play and respect for all (respecting coaches, officials, and all participants and ensuring my athletes respect others and play fair).

    I will care for the health and safety of all participants by taking concussions seriously. I understand that

    • • A concussion is a brain injury that can have both short- and long-term effects;
    • • A person doesn’t need to lose consciousness to receive a concussion;
    • • An athlete with a suspected concussion should stop participating in training, practice or competition immediately;
    • • Continuing to participate in further training, practice or competition with a suspected concussion increases a person’s risk of more severe, longer lasting symptoms, and increases their risk of other injuries or even death;
    • • I have a commitment to concussion recognition and reporting, including self-reporting of possible concussion and reporting to a designated person when someone suspects that another individual may have sustained a concussion; and
    • • If an athlete under my care sustains a concussion outside of Muaythai Ontario sanctioned competition I will ensure that they inform Muaythai Ontario through the Injury Reporting form at muaythaiontario.org/injuries or I will report it on their behalf.

    I will create an environment where participants feel safe and comfortable speaking up. I will

    • • Encourage athletes not to hide their symptoms, but to tell me, a Coach, an Official, a Parent or other designated responsible person they trust if they experience any symptoms of concussion after an impact;
    • • Lead by example. I will tell a Coach, Official, Parent and seek medical attention by a Physician or Nurse Practitioner if I am experiencing any concussion symptoms;
    • • Understand and respect that any athlete with a suspected concussion must be removed from sport and not permitted to return until they undergo a medical assessment by a Physician or Nurse practitioner and have been medically cleared to return to training, practice or competition; and
    • • For Coaches only: Commit to providing opportunities before and after each training, practice and competition to enable athletes to discuss potential issues related to concussions.

    I will support all participants to take the time they need to recover

    • • I understand my commitment to supporting the return-to-sport process;
    • • I understand the athletes will have to be cleared by a Physician or Nurse Practitioner before returning to sport; and
    • • I will respect Coaches, Officials, Parents, Physicians and Nurse Practitioners and any decisions made with regards to the health and safety of my athletes.

    I understand that not adhering to the code will result in corrective action

    • • I acknowledge that there will be escalating consequences if I am to repeatedly violate the Concussion Code of Conduct.

! NEW CHANGES FOR COMPETING WITH MTO

Athletes and coaches are no longer required to upload their medical forms and background screening forms to the website.

If competing and/or cornering your athletes at an event, you must bring all relevant forms (digital or paper).

They are required at EVERY event regardless whether you have competed/cornered the month before, the week before, or the day before. Without these forms, you will not be able to compete.
