Team Registration – Northwest Youth Basketball

This page is for Team Leaders or Coaches to register their team.

Please note that you will need to pay for the registration which will happen at the end when you submit your team name.

You will be taken to PayPal where you have the option to pay with a credit card for your team name. You don’t need to be a member of PayPal. Just choose the credit card option of payment which is close to the bottom of the screen.

Once we receive that payment and confirmed your choice of team name, we will add that name to the list of teams in the Player Registration form. Once that is done, your players can start registering themselves selecting the team name you have chosen.

*** NOTE: By participating in this league, your image may appear in court scenes posted on the website. At no time will names be published with the photo.

Concussion Waiver *

A concussion is a brain injury and all brain injuries are serious. They are caused by a bump, blow, or jolt to the head, or by a blow to another part of the body with the force transmitted to the head. They can range from mild to severe and can disrupt the way the brain normally works. Even though most concussions are mild, all concussions are potentially serious and may result in complications including prolonged brain damage and death if not recognized and managed properly. In other words, even a “ding” or a bump on the head can be serious. You can’t see a concussion and most sports concussions occur without loss of consciousness. Signs and symptoms of concussion may show up right after the injury or can take hours or days to fully appear. If your child reports any symptoms of concussion, or if you notice the symptoms or signs of concussion yourself, seek medical attention right away.
     Symptoms may include one or more of the following: 
          •  Headaches 
          •  “Pressure in head” 
          •  Nausea or vomiting 
          •  Neck pain
          •  Balance problems or dizziness 
          •  Blurred, double, or fuzzy vision 
          •  Sensitivity to light or noise 
          •  Feeling sluggish or slowed down
          •  Feeling foggy or groggy 
          •  Drowsiness 
          •  Change in sleep patterns 
          •  Amnesia 
          •  “Don’t feel right” 
          •  Fatigue or low energy 
          •  Sadness 
          •  Nervousness or anxiety 
          •  Irritability 
          •  More emotional 
          •  Confusion 
          •  Concentration or memory problems
          •  forgetting game plays
          •  Repeating the same question/comment 
     Signs observed by teammates, parents and coaches include: 
          •  Appears dazed 
          •  Vacant facial expression 
          •  Confused about assignment 
          •  Forgets plays 
          •  Is unsure of game, score, or opponent 
          •  Moves clumsily or displays incoordination 
          •  Answers questions slowly 
          •  Slurred speech 
          •  Shows behavior or personality changes 
          •  Can’t recall events prior to hit 
          •  Can’t recall events after hit 
          •  Seizures or convulsions 
          •  Any change in typical behavior or personality 
          •  Loses consciousness 
     What can happen if my child keeps on playing with a concussion or returns too soon?
     Athletes with the signs and symptoms of concussion should be removed from play immediately. Continuing to play with the signs and symptoms of a concussion leaves the young athlete especially vulnerable to greater injury. There is an increased risk of significant damage from a concussion for a period of time after that concussion occurs, particularly if the athlete suffers another concussion before completely recovering from the first one. This can lead to prolonged recovery, or even to severe brain swelling (second impact syndrome) with devastating and even fatal consequences. It is well known that adolescent or teenage athlete will often under report symptoms of injuries. And concussions are no different. As a result, education of administrators, coaches, parents and students is the key for student-athlete’s safety.
     Any athlete even suspected of suffering a concussion should be removed from the game or practice immediately. No athlete may return to activity after an apparent head injury or concussion, regardless of how mild it seems or how quickly symptoms clear, without medical clearance. Close observation of the athlete should continue for several hours. The new “Zackery Lystedt Law” in Washington now requires the consistent and uniform implementation of long and well-established return to play concussion guidelines that have been recommended for several years:
“a youth athlete who is suspected of sustaining a concussion or head injury in a practice or game shall be removed from competition at that time” and “…may not return to play until the athlete is evaluated by a licensed heath care provider trained in the evaluation and management of concussion and received written clearance to return to play from that health care provider”. 
     You should also inform your child’s coach if you think that your child may have a concussion. Remember, it’s better to miss one game than miss the whole season. And when in doubt, the athlete sits out.

Uniforms *

I agree with and will let my teammates know the following:

All teams are required to wear the same color, matching shirts. No tank-tops. Each player should have a number on their shirt (on the back and front) to aid the scorer in keeping accurate stats.  No form fitting clothing – e.g. spandex and yoga pants. Wearing shorts over the top of these would be acceptable.  Any player with a uniform that does not adhere to these guidelines will not be allowed to take to the court.
