NYSA Safety Reminders:
With the spring season in full swing, it is time to once again remind all our coaches, parents, volunteers and administrators that safety is Everyone’s responsibility.
Player Escort: NYSA strongly recommends escorting players to the fields for practices or games and remaining with the
child until a coach arrives. Please do not drop off a child unless the coach or assistant coach is present.
Immediately following a practice or a game, parents should walk on to the field and collect their children.
A Coach or assistant coach must remain with players until they are all accounted for.
Driving & Parking: Please follow and drive the various school roadways as they are marked or designated. Cars should only park where parking is permitted. If a parking lot is full, please park on the street. Please don't block other cars.
Player Pick Up: Coaches and their assistant coaches should never leave the field until the player's ride arrives.
Goal Safety: Goal safety is critical. Please ensure each goal is secured with a sandbag. If one is not available, don't use the goal.
