All parents of competitors AND competitors (19 years of age and younger) taking part in sporting events in the State of Ohio are required to complete a training video raising awareness of the danger of Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) in youth athletes. This is required as soon as you take part in an organized sporting event (race & camp) in Ohio and a signed form has to be on file on an annual basis. Coaches will have to view the video and review the handouts. This is now Ohio State Law. To give you a head start, we have included all necessary documents here for your convenience. Lindsay’s Law
