What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, a person operating a "youth athletic activity," generally

defined as an organized athletic activity in which a majority of the participants are

under 19 years of age, must distribute to participants at the start of the season for

that activity a concussion and head injury information sheet. No person may

participate in the activity unless he or she returns the information sheet signed by

the person and, if he or she is under the age of 19, by his or her parent or guardian.

This bill provides that a public or private school is not required to distribute an

information sheet to a pupil who wishes to participate in a youth athletic activity

operated by the school during a school year, and that a pupil may participate in that

youth athletic activity without returning the information sheet for that activity, if the

pupil returned an appropriately signed information sheet for another youth athletic

activity operated by the school during the same school year.
