First Aid Kits
All volunteers are familiarized every year with basic first aid. Every team is issued a first aid kit. The first aid kit must be present at every game and practice.
Insurance for Injuries
CFN maintains insurance for injuries. Incidents are historically tracked so that injury trends can be analyzed and preventative measures taken.
