Football Safety Facts & Information

 

Safety & Facts - Excerpt from the National Pop Warner Website

In Pop Warner Football, there is “an absence of catastrophic head and neck injuries and disruptive joint injuries found at higher levels.”

The injury rate in Pop Warner Football is:

• less than one-third the injury rate in high school football
• less than one-fifth the injury rate in college football
• less than one-ninth the injury rate in professional football

• Pop Warner's age-weight schematic protects younger, lighter players, who do not have higher injury rates.

• Organized football among 5 – 15 year-olds has 12 percent fewer injuries per capita than organized soccer in the same age range

• Organized football among 5 – 15 year-olds has 50 percent fewer injuries per capita than bicycle riding in the same age range.

• Organized football among 5 – 15 year-olds has 74 percent fewer injuries per capita than skateboarding in the same age group.

• Injuries in youth football are normally mild, and older players have a higher injury rate than younger players.

•  The Institute of Sports Medicine and Athletic Trauma in New York completed a Pop Warner injury survey in 71 towns covering over 5,000 players in 1998. The injury experience of 5,128 boys (8 to 15 years of age, weight 22.5 to 67.5 kg [50 to 150 lb]) participating in youth football revealed an overall rate of significant injury of 5%, with 61% classified as moderate and 38.9% as major injuries. That's about 1.33 per team per year. No catastrophic injuries occurred, and it was rare for a permanent disability to result from any injury.

LETTER TO PARENTS

 

 

 

 

 

May 24, 2007

 Dear Parents,

 

            It has come to our attention that the MRSA bacteria has become a concern in our communities at both the Pop Warner and high school levels.  We are sending this letter as a courtesy to warn our participant’s families.  One of the ways the MRSA bacteria is spread is during contact either in sports or otherwise. 

 

            MRSA is the name given to a group of bacteria that belong to the Staphylococcus aureus (SA) family of bacteria.  Healthy people can carry Staphyloccocus aureus bacteria on their skin, in their noses or in the back of their throats.  While the bacteria are simply being carried on the surface of the skin, all Staphylococcus aureus, including the MRSA strain, are not harmful to a healthy person. Because of this, most people are never aware that they are carrying the bacteria.   Infection happens if the bacteria enter the body through a cut, a graze or any break in the skin.  The bacteria can then cause skin infections or other more severe infections inside the body.  The severity of the infection depends on where in the body the bacteria has spread to.

 

            Palomar Conference recommends that you talk to your physician about testing your child for the MRSA bacteria.  Most strains of MRSA can be treated with antibiotics; however, if left untreated can be dangerous or even fatal. 

 

Sincerely,

Debbie Winters

Palomar PWFC Commissioner

Every parent in our association is an important part of this league.

Without the support of the parents, we couldn't succeed!   Your commitment to your son/daughters Pop Warner experience will ultimately dictate their success.  Please read the Parents Code of Conduct below.  This will help you to understand what is expected out of each and every one of us.

 

There is a lot of information available for you on this website.  Please visit the links below if you have specific questions.  If your question is not addressed, don't hesitate to email a board member.  Their information is available in the ADMIN section of this site.

Parents Code of Conduct

This code is intended to establish and sustain a positive environment for the youth who participate in our program and shall provide a guideline to parents and adults.

  • I will not force my child or any child to participate in youth football or cheer.
  • I will assist the association in teaching my child and others in this league that rules are important and will instill in the child that rules are important.
  • I understand that children learn best by example and that I will always attempt to set a good example for my child and any other children who participate or have any involvement with SMPW.
  • I will teach my child that winning is important but that honesty and hard work are equally rewarding, indiscriminate of whether it was accomplished in victory or defeat.
  • I will teach my child that one individual cannot win a team competition.
  • I will teach and demonstrate by example the importance of good sportsmanship in victory and in defeat.
  • I will not publicly question the honesty, integrity or judgment of the volunteer coaches or other adult volunteers.
  • I understand that verbal and physical abuse is not to be tolerated against anyone in this league.
  • I understand that racial epithets or negative innuendo related to a person’s race, religion, or ethnicity will not be tolerated.
  • I recognize that respect among adults is necessary for success in this league and that all adult volunteers are entitled to respect, as are the children.
  • As a Parent, Guardian or Spectator, I will responsibly handle disagreements. I agree not to engage in divisive activity such as verbal and physical confrontation. I will not create conflict by slander, malicious rumors or threats. Nor will I entice another to do so. I agree to first submit any complaints to my local organization and then to the commissioner of Palomar Conference as a last resort. Complaints to SMPW will be in writing via letter, mail or email.
