OMS student athletes will have the opportunity to participate in concussion testing provided by Kinetic Edge on Tuesday, July 9 and Thursday, July 11 after their Strength and Speed sessions that will finish at 9:00 am.
The purpose of the testing is to gather baseline data for use if a concussion is suspected for an athlete during the 2024-25 school year.
Things to note:
➡️ The completion of this program costs $20 per athlete and should take approximately half an hour to complete.
➡️ Athletes will need to bring their cell phone for the testing.
➡️ Please print off and complete this consent form prior to testing: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1MoId5rMULEpjaTfL4nRkxpNV2EUSSBgc/view?usp=sharing. Copies will be available at the testing site if needed.
There will also be an early evening session at Kinetic Edge on July 18 for student athletes (middle and high school). This is for families that the July 9 and 11 times do not work for.
If you have any questions, please reach out to Brett Doud at doudb@oskycsd.org or Betsy Luck at lucke@oskycsd.org.
