MEDICAL, MEDICATIONS AND HEALTH & SAFETY

  • Yes! All campers are required to complete a physical exam within 14 months of the start of camp. A doctor’s signature is no longer required to verify their last physical exam.

  • Please email email to request accommodations for your camper. The Camp Name will coordinate with The University’s Disability and Access Office to provide Accommodations and Services to address the barriers that impact a camper’s ability to learn, participate and perform.

  • Texas Athletics subscribes to the WeatherData, Inc. Skyguard monitoring and alerting service.  Directors are immediately notified when inclement weather is approaching the UT campus, and will remove campers from any potentially dangerous situation.

    Inclement weather delays may impact the daily schedule of events.

  • The camp can dispense medications (prescription or over-the-counter (OTC)) to your camper. These medications include prescription medications such as antibiotics, asthma inhalers, and OTC medications such as Tylenol, Advil, vitamins, and homeopathic remedies. 

    The following must be completed and approved before a medicine can be dispensed to your camper:

    • Complete the Permission to Dispense section on the medical forms (included in registration). Please complete this section if your camper needs a prescription or OTC medicine while at camp, even if they are not currently taking any medications. No medication can be administered until a signed and completed form is on file. This also includes any medications the camper will keep and self-administer during camp. 
      • Inhalers: Campers should keep their inhalers with them at all times, including during training sessions and downtime. 
      • Epi-Pens: Campers with epi-pens should keep their epi-pen with them at all times, including during training sessions and downtime. Please give an extra epi-pen to the designated camp staff on the first day of camp with instructions.
    • Deliver medications to the designated camp staff on the first day of camp in prescription bottles or marked containers that include the camper's full name, medication name, dosage and the time of day to be administered. Clear plastic bags (such as a Zip-Loc) are a great way to keep all medicines together. 
    • Verbally communicate medicine dispensing instructions with the designated camp staff on the first day of camp. If the designated camp staff helps administer medications, they will arrange times with the camper each day of the camp.

    Before a camper can carry and self-administer medication during camp, all parents/guardians must affirm and agree to the following:

    • The camper has been instructed on proper medication use and is physically, mentally, and behaviorally capable of administering the medication without camp personnel supervision.
    • The camper has an adequate supply of the medication for the camp and can store and secure the medication. 
    • The camper will use the medication only as prescribed by a physician or according to dosage instructions. The camper will not share or otherwise provide medication to any other camper.
    • The camper understands and agrees that failure to abide by this agreement constitutes a violation of camp rules that will result in disciplinary action, including removal from camp.

    Any prescriptions that need to be filled/refilled will be first processed with the camper’s insurance provided a copy of the insurance card is on file. Please upload a copy of the insurance card (front and back) to the camper’s account. 

  • Campers needing medical attention will be triaged and taken to an Urgent Care facility or hospital Emergency Department. The camper’s parent/guardian will be billed for provided services.

    The camp will always notify parents/guardians of any illness, injury, or other medical condition or health concern that warrants a physician’s care.

  • Every effort is made to ensure camper safety. Supervision is provided at all camp sessions/activities and at the residential housing facilities. Campers are assigned to at least one counselor and are not permitted to leave facilities without supervision. 

    A trained staff member is assigned to the front desk of residential housing 24/7 to monitor the entrance and authorize entry onto the premises. All visitors are required to sign in. A security officer holding a current non-commissioned security license issued by the Texas Private Security Board will walk the floors of residential housing from 10 PM to 8 AM nightly. 

    Per University of Texas policy and human resources procedures required by the State of Texas and the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), each camp staff member has completed a thorough criminal and sexual offender background check and training for child abuse awareness, safety and reporting.

  • Every member of our staff has fulfilled all human resources procedures and clearances required by the University of Texas, the State of Texas, the NCAA and all relevant and applicable laws, including a comprehensive criminal background check and training for child protection awareness, safety and reporting protocols. 

  • Our staff coaches and counselors maintain constant supervision throughout all camp activities, on and off the field. A licensed and experienced athletic trainer is on duty to attend to all injuries and sickness, as well as monitor levels of hydration and overall wellbeing.

  • All summer programs involving minors at The University of Texas at Austin follow guidelines set forth by the Youth Protection Program (YPP). The purpose of the YPP is to promote the safety of minors participating in camps or programs on university premises or participating in those programs sponsored or supported by the University. All camps and programs work closely with the YPP Manager to ensure that every program operates in accordance with all of the university’s policies, rules and regulations, as well as the laws of The State of Texas regarding the safety of minors. More information about the YPP is available online at www.youthprotectionprogram.utexas.edu, and questions can be directed to the YPP Manager at  ypp@utexas.edu.

    The YPP Parent Guidebook will familiarize you with how the University protects your children while they are participating in programs on campus.

  • On June 1, 2015, Gov. Greg Abbott signed S.B. 11, also known as the "campus carry" law. S.B. 11 provides that license holders may carry a concealed handgun throughout university campuses, starting Aug. 1, 2016. The law gives public universities some discretion to regulate campus carry. 

    The University of Texas at Austin take issues surrounding guns on campus very seriously and will strive to create policies that conform to the new law, protect the rights of citizens and ensure the safety and security of the entire campus.  

    S.B. 11 provides that after consulting with students, staff and faculty regarding "the nature of the student population, specific safety considerations and the uniqueness of the campus environment" the university may enact reasonable rules and regulations regarding:

    • carrying of concealed handguns by license holders on campus; and

    • storage of handguns in dormitories or other residential facilities  

    The law stipulates, however, that these rules and regulations may not either "generally prohibit" or "have the effect of generally prohibiting" license holders from carrying concealed handguns on campus.  The purpose of the Youth Protection Program (YPP) is to protect all minors in their university-sponsored activities and interactions involving members of The University of Texas at Austin community. Pursuant to S.B. 11 (the “Campus Carry Law”), the YPP Policy prohibits the carrying of a concealed handgun by any person involved in a University of Texas at Austin camp/program for minors. This Policy also applies to parents and guardians who are visiting or transporting a participating minor to and from camps/programs at The University of Texas at Austin.  

    “PURSUANT TO SECTION 30.06, PENAL CODE (TRESPASS BY LICENSE HOLDER WITH A CONCEALED HANDGUN), A PERSON LICENSED UNDER SUBCHAPTER H, CHAPTER 411, GOVERNMENT CODE (HANDGUN LICENSING LAW), MAY NOT ENTER THIS PROPERTY WITH A CONCEALED HANDGUN”  

    Please see Campus Carry Implementation for more information.
