Mules' Athletic Training Room Policies


The athletic training room is a medical facility. If an athlete is injured and cannot practice he/she will be under the care and direction of the athletic training staff.

1. ALL students in athletics MUST have the appropriate UIL physical forms on file in the athletic training room before they are cleared to participate in their sport. This includes any practice, before, during or after school, both in-season and out-of-season.

2. Report all injuries to the athletic trainers and/or coaches. Injuries should be reported as soon as possible.

3. Please notify the athletic trainers if you plan to see a doctor for your injury. Athletes MUST submit a doctor’s note immediately upon return to school. We must follow doctor’s orders, including return-to-play guidelines. If you are seen by a doctor you can only be cleared to play by a doctor unless otherwise indicated.

4. Morning treatments are from 7:15-8:15 am every school day. Please be prompt and allow for enough time for your treatment. Morning treatments are not a punishment for being injured, it is an opportunity to receive treatment and recover sooner.

5. Report to your coach at the start of the period before coming for treatment. Immediately after treatments are over you will report back to your coach.

6. Dress appropriately for the athletic training room. NO sports bras, skirts, etc.

7. Athletes will continue treatments until CLEARED by the athletic trainer or doctor.

8. Horseplay, visitations, and loitering will not be allowed in the athletic training room.

9. Get to practice on time! Being in the athletic training room is not an excuse for being late to practice.

10. The Student Code of Conduct and all other school policies as detailed in student agendas will be enforced in the athletic training room at all times.
