Baseline concussion testing is offered (at parent's request, NOT mandatory) by Sanford or Essentia Health. Appointments can be made by calling them directly.
If you have ANY questions or concerns about testing,
please contact Sanford OR Essentia Sports Medicine directly.
Sanford: 701-417-6000
Essentia: 701-364-HURT
For PARENTS/GUARDIANS AND COACHES:
If it is determined by Sports Medicine personnel (per FMA rules) that a player has a suspected concussion, they will be required to turn-in their helmet. A medical release (see document below) is required before the player's helmet will be returned and prior to the player participating in ANY practices or games. Please contact our Equipment Manager, Dallas Raftevold, at 701-799-7479 to make arrangements to present the release and have the helmet released.
FM Athletics now requires all coaches to complete USA Football concussion training and provide a certificate of completion. More information about these courses may be found on our "Coaches" tab.
In addition, all of our Board Members have also successfully completed the certification process.
