The OATA, in partnership with
the Oklahoma Secondary Schools Activities Association (OSSA) has created this
page as a resource center for all high school coaches,
administrators and parents of student athletes participating in high school
athletics. Materials will include strategies for the management of
concussions, heat illness, etc. It is the OATA's intent that this will
assist in preventing unnecessary injuries and limit the severity of those that
do occur.
