Page 14 of 87 meNGER SPORTS' Challenger Sports Discipline Plan If a situation arises where a camper is misbehaving/becoming disruptive, quietly speak with the camper to find out whether there is a problem that is causing this behavior. Give the camper the opportunity to explain without fear of punishment. It may take a couple of attempts to get the camper to open up, however, it is important that the camper does not feel pressured or threatened that if they don't tell the coach, they will be punished. If the poor behavior is persistent, explain to the camper what the consequences of their behavior will be. Below is a progression of what may occur: • 10 minute time out • Only if necessary, sit the camper out of the World Cup at the end of the day. At this point the camper's behavior should be discussed with the Camp Director, who should follow up by talking with the camper one on one away from the group. If poor behavior continues; • Camp Director should speak with the camper's parents at the earliest opportunity, and explain that there has been an issue with the camper's behavior. Ensure that the Camp Coordinator is present at this point. • If the.camper continues to be a distraction both the Camp Director and Coordinator should contact the camper's parents to inform them that the camper is no longer welcome at camp. (only in very extreme circumstances). Prohibitions 1. Corporal punishment, including spanking, is prohibited. 2. No camper shall be subjected to cruel or severe punishment, humiliation, or verbal abuse. 3. No camper shall be denied food, water, or shelter as a form of punishment. 4. No child shall be punished for soiling, wetting, or not using the toilet. This policy is designed to support the standards of respectful and responsible camper conduct. The camp must be an environment where campers, camp personnel, parents/guardians, and community are free from conduct that either threatens or does mental/physical harm to them or others. With regard to these expectations, campers are required to conform to respectful and responsible conduct while at camp, or while engaged in camp functions away from camp. Respectful conduct standards require that we treat others as we wish to be treated, showing kindness, consideration, and acceptance when engaged with others. Responsible conduct standards require that we are in control of our actions, are Page 15 of 87 C - Rg" PORTS' accountable for our actions and take responsibility for our actions.

Keep a chart of places you have used, so you do not put the Insulin in the same place all the time. • Keep your shots 1 Inch ( 2S centimeters, crrn) away from scars and 2 inures (5 cm) away from your navel. • DO NOT put a shot Ina spot that is bruised, swollen, or tender. 3 Page 55 of 87 CIMMER SPORTS' 0owSqn Emoiape IM 66$WVAAE94W?4AOMW?4TCF6107D The site you choose for the injection should be clean and dry. of your skin is visibly dirty, clean it with soap and water. DO NOT use an alcohol wipe on your injection site. The insulin needs to go into the fat layer under the skirl_ finchthe skin and put the needle in at a 45* angle. If your tissues are thick enough, you maybe able to inject straight up and down (90' angle), Check with your provider before doing this. Push the needle all the way into the skin. Let go of, the pinched skin. Inject the insulin slowly and steadily until it is all inL . Leave the syringe in place for 5 seconds after injecting. PUIJL the needle out at the same angle it went in. Put the syringe down. There is no need to recap it. If insulin tends to leak from your injection site. press the injection site for a few seconds after the injection If this happens often, check with your healthcare pmvider. You may change the site or the injection angle. Place the needle and syringe in a safe hard container. Close the container. and keep it safely away from chtildren and animals. Never reuse needles or syringes. How They Work Insulin pumps deliver rapid- or short-acting insulin 24 hours a day through a catheter placed under the skin. Your insulin doses are separated into: Basal: rates • Bolus doses to cover carbohydrate in meals • Correction or supplemental doses Basal insulin is delivered continuously over 24 hours. and keeps your blood glucose levels in range between meals and overnight. Often, you program different amounts of insulin at different times of the day and night. 4 Page 56 of 87 CIGNCER SPORTS' ComigignfnwlopeID; 3�b TA+t@9 T•9iwo• 7sTC�9iGFL? When you eat, you use buttons on the insulin pump to give additional insulin called a bolus. You take a bolus to cover the carbohydrate in each meal or snack. If you eat more than you planned, you can :simply program a larger bolus of insulin to cover it. 'lou also take a bolus to treat high blood glucose levels. If you have high blood glucose levels before you eat; you give a correction or supplemental bolus of insulin to bring it back to your target range. Placing the Pump Knowing hove an insulin pump works is one thing. But you may be wondering where you are supposed to put it, You can buy a pump case or it can be attached to a waistband, pocket, bra, garter belt, sock, or underwear. You can also tuck any excess tubing into the waistband of your underwear or pants. When you sleep, you could try laying the :pump next to you on the bed. You could even try wearing it on a waistband, armband. legband. or clip it to the blanket sheet, pajamas. stuffed toy; or pillow with a belt clip. Showering and bathing are other instances when you should know where to put your insulin pump. Although insulin pumps are water resistant, they should not be set directly in the water. Instead, you can disconnect it. All insulin pumps have a disconnect port for activities, such as swimming, bathing, or showering. Some pumps can be placed on the side of the tub, in a shower caddy, or in a soap tray. ire are also special cases you can buy. You can hang these cases from your neck or from a shower curtain hook. No matter what you may think, you can still have fun when you are using an insulin pump. When you exercise or play sports, you can wear a strong elastic waist bard with a pump case. You can also wear it on an armband where it is visible. Women can tape the insulin pump to the front of their sports bra. Some coaches do not allow any devices to be wom because getting the pump knocked Into you or falling on It can be painful. In this case, you may just need to take the insulin pump off. Page 57 of 87 C � NGER �PORTs' DOWSVn Enwei%lW Q: 546a "?-AAE9AftT 4WOw32#r3CFbiO?O When You Have to Disconnect When you disconnect your pumpsyou are stopping all delivery (basal and bolus) by the pump. Here,are some important tips to remember when disconnecting your pump. 1. It is important foryou to remember that if you stop your pump while it is in the middle of delivering any bolus it will NOT be resumed. You may need to program a new one. 2. Be sure to bolus to cover the basal rate you will miss. If your blood glucase level is under 150, you can wait an hour to bolus. 3_ Do not go longer than one to two hours withaut any insulin. 4. Monitor your blood glucose every, three to four hours. Now that ,you know how the insulin pump works and how to wear it take a look at some of the facts to see if this is right for you. Insulin Pe How to Use 1. Wash your hands. 2. Check the drug label to be sure it is what your doctor prescribed. Check the expiration date on the pen. Do not use a drug that is past the expiration date. Also do not use if beyond number of days listed in table at end of this document once opened and in use. 3. Remove pen cap.. 4. Look at the insulin. o, Short or rapid -acting insulin (Regular, Humalog, NovoLog, and Apidra) and Lantus or Levemir should appear clear. Do not use it if the drug appears to have pieces in it or is discolored. o intermediate or mixed insulin (NPK 75/25,70/30. or 50150) will appear cloudy and; white. This type of insulin should be gently mixed before use. To, do this, roll the pen between your hands. You must also tum the pen up and down ten times as shown in picture (Rg. 2). o Look at the insulin to be sure it is evenly mixed (cloudy white) with no fi Page 58 of 87 CIMMER SPORTS' clumping of particles. S. Wipe the tip of the pen where the needle will attach with an alcohol swab or a cotton bail moistened with alcohol. 6. Remove the protective pull tab form the needle and screw it onto the pen until snug (but not too tight). 7. Remove both the plastic outer cap and inner needle cap. 8. Look at the dose window and turn the dosage knob to 7 units.. 9. Holding the pen with the needle pointing upwards, press the button until at least a drop of insulin appears. This is the 'air shot' or safety shot. Repeat this step it needed until a drop appears (see figure at right), 10. Dial the number of units you need to take. 11. Decide where on your body you will give the shot. 8e sure to give the shot in a different place each time. You can stay in the same general area. Try to stay at least 1 inch from the last shot, any scars, and your belly button. Keep a diary to remember where your last shot was given {see image at right 12. To hold the pen, wrap your fingers around the pen with your thumb free to reach the dosing knob. 13. With the other hand, gently pinch up the skin around where you will give the shot and hold firmly ('pinching' is most important when you are injecting in an area that does not have a lot of fat). You may not need to pinch if giving into a fatty area like the abdomen or if you are using a short needle (see image below). 14.lnsert the needle at a 45 to 90 degree angle. Ask your doctor or nurse which angle is best for you (longer needles mayrequire 45 degree angle, where shorter needles may be given straight at a 90 degree angle). 15. White keeping needle under skin, press the button all the way returning to zero. and keep pressing for six to ten seconds (larger Moses may require the whole ten seconds). Withdraw from the skin. 16. If you bleed when the needle comes out, place an alcohol swab over the skin right away. Press gently on the swab until bleeding has stopped. Do not rub the skin. 17. Carefully replace outer needle cap over needle and unscrew until loosened (needle should come off pen inside needle cap). Never leave needle on pen when 7 Page 59 of 87 MONGER SPORTS" not in use. 18. Throw away the needle in a hard plastic or metal container. Close the lid tightly. When the container is full, tape the lid down, and throw it away in the garbage, (but not with recyclables). Note: Check your lowds guidelines on syringe disposal. MmIcation ftm How can you safeguard your practice from medication errors?

The Camp Director/ Camp Health Care Supervisor will decide if a player can attend the program. If the camper becomes ill whilst at camp, the director will contact the parent or emergency contact person to ask that the camper be collected and taken home. Circumstances that would prompt such action include instances where the staff feels the camper needs to see a physician, is contagious or requires prolonged individual attention that may interfere with the supervision of other campers. Until the parent arrives at the site, the child will be made comfortable in the camp infirmary, depending upon the severity of the illness. In the event of serious injury, the Camp Director will call for an ambulance or EMT before attempting any other calls. The parents will be provided information of symptoms upon arrival. Should these symptoms indicate an infection of a communicable nature (impetigo, lice, conjunctivitis, etc.) parents will be asked to take the child to a physician. Challenger Sports will request a doctor's note stating the diagnosis and date that the child may return to the program. Parents should not bring their child to the program when there is a chance that he/she is not well. Any illness that occurs at camp will be noted in the Medical Log book in accordance with 105 CMR 430.155 430.160: Medication Administration (A) Medication prescribed for campers shall be kept in the original containers bearing the pharmacy label, which shows the date of filling, the pharmacy name and address, the filling pharmacist's initials, the serial number of the prescription, the name of the patier, the name of the prescribing practitioner, the name of the prescribed medication, directions for use and cautionary statements. All over the counter medications for campers shall be kept in the original containers with the original label and directions for use.

Challenger Sports aims to teach the sport of soccer in 'The Challenger; Way'. The Challenger Way As an educational company, Challenger believes that the child is the most important aspect of everything we do. We have developed a unique way of coaching which we call 'The Challenger Way'. So, what does The Challenger Way mean? In short, it means: a) Fun ... at all times. b) Exciting unique leading edge learning curriculums c) All Challenger coaches, coach children, not activities/practices d) Teaching children techniques and tactics in a way that makes them feel good about themselves whatever their ability, and enabling them to build their own self-confidence and self-esteem. e) Children learn most when participating. Our practices involve maximum participation and contact with ball. f) We also encourage children to primarily compete against themselves. That way they can always be striving for improvement whatever their ability and they are never judged against "who is the best". g) We also believe that trying hard is as important as doing well. Effort, and trying ones best, should always be rewarded. h) We believe that children do not learn from being embarrassed, punished for making mistakes, or from being criticized. We encourage children to learn new skills without the fear of failure and our encouraging staff will be there to support them all the way with positive feedback about what they are doing well... not what they aren't doing! i) The Challenger coach plays an important role in enabling all children to become independent learners, and thus enable them to develop important social and psychological skills. As such, we don't tell children what to do all the time; we ask questions and guide learning. j) We believe that sport is about more than well ... sport. We believe sport can teach children important social and moral skills, like citizenship, sharing, respect for others, as well as developing positive attitudes towards learning. k) Above anything else The Challenger Way encourages children to enjoy themselves and enjoy sport at whatever level they so desire. We aim to put smiles on many young faces!
