The following is a list of athletic training forms that should

preseason paperwork meeting.
1. Pre-participation Medical and Injury History
Questionnaire. If you have had an injury, please list
which side (left or right) and the month and year in which the
injury occurred in the correct space. If an item does not apply,
please write "none". Do not leave blank spaces.
2. Informed Consent/Equipment Warning.
Please read the entire document and sign and date at the end of
each statement.
3. Notice of Privacy Practices. Please
read the entire document and sign and return the last page. The
rest of the document may be kept for your personal reference. Only
the signature sheet needs to be returned acknowledging that you
received and read the form.
4. Authorization Policy Form. Please read
and review the entire document. Only sections 1 and 10 need to be
completed by the student-athlete. The rest of the form is
pre-checked for all required information.
5. Acknowledgement of Insurance
Requirements/Emergency Contact & Insurance Form.
Please see the attached cover letter for further explanation.
Please note: If a student-athlete is under 18 years of age, a
parent or guardian signature is required on all forms.
In addition, the NCAA has instituted a stricter application of
the medical exception policy for the use of banned stimulant
medication for the treatment of ADD/ADHD. This stricter
application reflects a strong stand on policy enforcement,
protecting the student-athlete competing while using these
stimulants and the integrity of the sport. If you
have been diagnosed with ADD/ADHD and are using stimulant
medication, you must provide proper documentation from your
diagnosing health care provider in order to participate in NCAA
athletics each academic year. The forms can be found on
the Athletic Training website along with all other athletic
training documents and should be printed and given to your
diagnosing health care provider to fill out and return to the
Athletic Training Department.

If you have any questions or concerns about any of these forms,
the Athletic Training Department may be reached at 508.626.4564 or
