An HEO Injury Report Form must be completed in the following cases:

• If a player or team official is injured during a game and misses more than one period.
• If a player or team official is injured during a practice or other association-sanctioned function and requires medical attention.
• If a player or team official reports an injury after the fact (e.g. player is injured during a game and continues play, however attends a doctor the next day for the injury).

It is imperative that the above form is completed in a timely manner to ensure that any potential insurance claims are dealt with appropriately.
