OSAA HANDBOOK

Other than some OHSLA specific rules that are covered in the SOP's (Standard Operating Procedures), the OHSLA follows the OSAA rules quite closely.  The OSAA rule book can be found at the following link:

FORM FOR COOPERATIVE SPONSORSHIPS (CO-OPS)

When there is interest in lacrosse at a school that has no team, but not enough interest to generate large enough numbers to start a new team at that school, it is possible to form a co-op with another school. This can be with either a new team or with a previously established team.  The goal here is to combine both schools in order to create a large enough base of students in which to field a single team.  The desired result would be to see growth occur at both schools, hopefully in enough numbers where they can both field individual teams in the future.  This tactic has worked successfully in the OHSLA several times.

Co-ops can also be used to combine two small schools that could never support a team on their own, in order to create large enough numbers that a team could be formed. 

Co-ops are not to be used to improve a teams quality (win/loss record). 

Co-ops are not to be used as a method to get around OSAA rule 8.5.1.  In other words, if you have a player who wants to play lacrosse but his school does not offer the sport, a co-op cannot be formed with the players school and an existing teams school in order to give this student a place to play.  The OHSLA is fairly lenient in allowing an initial co-op in order for this player to build interest at his school for the first year.  The hope here is that the player will work to add interest at his school.  In the second year of the co-op, if interest has not built at the players school of attendance, it can only be assumed that the co-op was used in order to sidestep OSAA rule 8.5.1, instead of for the purpose of growing interest at a new school. The chances are pretty high that the co-op will be denied in year two if there is no growth at the players school.

Co-ops must be signed by the Athletic Director or Activities Director of both schools.

When the co-op form is complete, please mail the signed form to the Assistant Commissioner. A mailing address is at the bottom of the form.

CONCUSSION MANAGEMENT VIDEO

Video from 2011 Meeting:  This is a link to a video that features OES Athletic Trainer Joel Gray giving his concussion management presentation that was presented at the OHSLA All Coaches meeting held on January 14, 2011.  In this video Joel explains the symptoms, recommended on field first aid, and recovery schedule of concusions.  With the occurance of concussions increasing in all contact sports, this is an important video for all coaches and parents to watch.

Video from 2012 Meeting:  This is a link to a video that features Dr. Andrea Herzka, a specialist in Sports Medicine and Arthroscopy at OHSU's Department of Orthopedic Surgery.  Andrea, along with her colleague, Dr. James Chesnutt, are among the nations leading experts in Sports Medicine and concussions.  This presentation and discussion was part of the 2012 OHSLA All Coaches Meeting, presented on January 7, 2012.  Another great video to watch for both parents and coaches regarding the recognition, on field treatment and recovery of concussions.
