The State of New Jersey passed a law last year (A2743) concerning management of head injuries to student athletes. The Legislature and the State Board of Education developed a model policy which was then modified and adopted by all of the individual school districts in the State. Under the law school districts are immune from litigation of over head injuries that occur when a "youth sports organization" uses school fields if the organization certifies to the Board of Education that they are in compliance with district guidelines.
