Please ensure your emergency contact is aware of the sport or activity you are participating in and understands your wishes should they be contacted in the event of an emergency. Before participating, discuss your medical preferences with them, including whether you would want an ambulance to be called, any relevant medical conditions, allergies, medications, and any other information that may assist emergency responders if you are unable to communicate your wishes yourself. Chapter Leaders and volunteers are not medical professionals and will use their best judgment in responding to incidents. If they reasonably believe a participant is experiencing a medical emergency or requires urgent medical assessment, they will call 911. This may include, but is not limited to, loss of consciousness, difficulty breathing, chest pain, suspected head, neck, or spinal injuries, severe bleeding, seizures, significant allergic reactions, or any injury or illness where the participant cannot safely continue or where immediate medical attention is considered appropriate.
Participants should ensure their emergency contact is aware that Chapter Leaders and volunteers may contact emergency services if they believe it is necessary for the participant's safety.
