ACADEMIC ELIGIBILITYThe Bigfork High School Academic Success Plan is implemented by the BHS Teacher Assistance Team (TAT) throughout the career of each student. This process is based on bi-weekly reviews of every student’s performance in grades 7-12. Students who are failing at least one class at the time of the first review will enter the first level of intervention. Students who are failing at future biweekly progress examinations, including at the end of a marking period, are placed at the appropriate level of intervention based on previous progress reviews. See next slide for the flow chart.

Here is what….

REQUIRESof you

● The MSHSL requires all team members to complete:1. An annual eligibility agreement 2. An annual health questionnaire 3. A physical examination every three years

● MSHSL participants must adhere to all bylaws as described in the annual eligibility agreement. Bylaw violations carry penalties that increase in duration with consequent violations.

● Participation in MSHSL activities is a privilege, not a right.

● Student athletes must be in grades 7-12 (bylaw 105: Students in grades K-6 are not eligible to participate in any MSHSL activities.)

○ Make progress toward graduation, be enrolled full-time and attend class

○ No more than 6 seasons in any one sport ○ All eligibility rules apply 12 months of year (continuous

until graduation)

● Meet chemical eligibility requirements (no use, possession or distribution of alcohol, tobacco or controlled substance or paraphernalia).

● Be in good standing with school and team. If suspended from school cannot participate in any school activities.

● Student code of responsibility: I will obey and respect the rules of my school and the laws of my community, state and country. I will be fully responsible for my own actions and consequences of my actions

Important Reminders

● Attendance: Must be in school all day to participate. If excused absence must be approved in advance & permission from principal

● Zero-tolerance: Harassment and Hazing: bylaw 209.60

● Ejection from a game: sit out rest of game and next game; second ejection equals a 4 game suspension

● Transfer students: See Athletic Director

REQUIRES

OF THE SCHOOL

HERE’S WHAT….

Whenever Law Enforcement hands the school a notice of student incident, or the school is notified in other ways of a student incident,

MSHSL REQUIRES US TO TAKE ACTION in a number of ways:Chemical Eligibility Violations

● 1 st Offense: 2 weeks or 2 contests, whichever is longer ○ Unable to suit up or remain on sidelines during suspension.○ Ineligible to be captain during season of suspension ○ Ineligible to earn varsity letter during season of suspension

● 2 nd Offense: 3 weeks or 6 contests, whichever is longerSame as above

● 3 rd Offense: 4 weeks or 12 contests, whichever is longer ○ Same as above 2 offenses.

Must be at all practices, games, meetings during suspension Must start and finish the season where suspension was served Denial disqualification: If not truthful; additional 9 weeks added

Whenever Law Enforcement hands the school a notice of student incident, or the school is notified in other ways of a student incident, and the school doesn’t take appropriate action…Bigfork could be subject to:

● Forfeit of games● Forfeit of season● Loss of Trophies● Ineligible for playoffs

That's why we adhere to ALL Chemical Eligibility Guidelines and treat Chemical Violations very seriously!!

The Reality of Alcohol Use in Athletes

● Athletes who drink are twice as likely to get injured● Drinking to intoxication can negate as much as

fourteen days of training effect ● The associated residual effect of the alcoholic

hangover has been shown to reduce athletic performance by 11.4%.

● Reaction time can be affected even twelve hours after alcohol consumption.

● Drinking alcohol after competition hinders recoveryAmerican Athletic Institute, 2020

If you have specific questions about these guidelines, please

contact Heather Lovdahl, Athletic Director or your coach.

Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness

Dr. Mike Olson DC, ICCSP, CCSP

Delayed Onset Muscle SorenessThe clinical progression and manifestation of exercise-induced muscle damage, is known as

DOMS.

Muscle Fever

CauseThought to be caused by eccentric (lengthening) exercise, which causes small-scale damage (microtrauma) to the muscle fibers. After such exercise, the muscle then rapidly adapts to prevent muscle damage, and thereby soreness.

Prevalence● most prevalent at the beginning of the

sporting season when athletes are returning to training following a period of reduced activity

● also common when athletes are first introduced to certain types of activities regardless of the time of year

Signs and Symptoms• local muscle soreness• reduced range of motion (ROM)• altered biomechanical joint function• impaired muscle contraction• reduced force capacity (strength)• edema and intramuscular swelling

Timeline● commonly begins 6-12 hours post exercise;● increasing progressively until peak pain

occurs at 48-72 hours;● and thereafter decreasing until completely

imperceptible 5-7 days post exercise

Physiology Basics● increased lactic acid build up● electrolyte imbalances● leukocyte accumulation and infiltration in the

exercised muscles● upregulation of circulating pro-inflammatory

cytokines● “inflammation”

TreatmentsRecovery strategies should focus on

1. Primary Prevention of DOMS2. Treatment of inflammatory responses

leading to DOMS3. Treatment and recovery strategies to

reduce the symptoms of DOMS

Preventing DOMS• regular sleep• regular and varied exercise YEAR ROUND

– incorporate eccentric exercises• healthy practice schedule• knowledgeable coaches• Compression Therapy

– during exercise– post exercise– intermittently

• Caffeine– small study demonstrated reduction of DOM if consuming caffeine prior to

workout (males>females)

Inflammatory Treatment● anti-inflammatory diet● adequate or increased electrolytes● NSAIDs● massage● exercise● reduce intensity of exercise 1-2 days following

an intense exercise day

Recovery Strategies● Cold Water Immersion Therapy

○ 11-15 C (51-59 F) for 11-15 min● Active Regeneration

○ light walking, bike riding, rowing, UE ergometer■ best at 24 hours after initial exercise■ been proven the most effective

● Foam Rolling● Protein

○ whether in diet or supplementation○ branched chain amino acids
