Safety + Standards

Protection is part of the program.

A strong basketball culture starts with qualified adults, clear boundaries, informed families, and expectations that apply to everyone.

Required preparation comes first.

At every Axxis activity, essential emergency and medical information is kept immediately available to designated program staff.

Every coach completes

  • Background screening renewed at least as often as the applicable sanctioning body requires
  • Ohio concussion training renewed within the required period
  • Annual Lindsay’s Law coach training
  • Current CPR, AED, and first-aid certification

Every selected athlete submits

  • Concussion information acknowledgment
  • Current sports physical or medical clearance
  • Emergency and medical information
  • Annual Lindsay’s Law acknowledgment

Clear lines protect everyone.

Parent-visible digital communication

No unscheduled one-on-one transportation

Two-adult rule whenever practical

Clear private concern-reporting process

Committed families receive access to the private team app, including the channel for serious concern reports.

Clear information before commitment. Organized updates after it.

Before placement, Axxis communicates through email. After a family accepts a roster position, the private team app becomes the central program channel, with text alerts reserved for urgent changes and scheduled parent updates used for ongoing information.

Families are expected to communicate promptly and honestly, participate in team support efforts, and maintain respectful sideline conduct.

Respect, safety, and accountability protect the team.

Each incident is reviewed individually based on the facts, seriousness, safety impact, prior behavior, and program responsibilities.

01Bullying, hazing, or harassment

02Discrimination or hateful conduct

03Threats, fighting, or unsafe behavior

04Repeated disrespect or disruption

05Substance use at program activities

School eligibility and tournament rules both matter.

Axxis operates around Ohio school basketball by holding fall evaluations before spring and summer competition. Event rosters follow the eligibility, age, and grade rules of each tournament or sanctioning body. Families must disclose school and team information needed to protect athlete eligibility.

Selected families and staff receive the complete concussion response, return-to-play, medical, emergency, and acknowledgment procedures in their required private documents.

Start with a direct conversation.
