Ranger Parents,

Great News! Information came out from the district that we can start Strength and Conditioning / Football Skills starting tomorrow. I visited with the kids during the athletic period today. This is voluntary and will be just like our Summer Weight and Speed Camp. Our number one concern is keeping athletes safe, so I have listed bullet point reminders below that we went over today. Please understand this is not a practice or the start of our training camp. Our coaches will be working with kids before and after school on strength and conditioning and football skills that will help them get their bodies ready for practice when we start training camp. They must fill out a Covid Screening Form every day.

The form for tomorrow is listed below. We also shared this link with all our players today. We will start checking in 9th grade football players at 6:45 am tomorrow and 4:20 pm for our 10-12th behind Vista Ridge HS on the grass fields. Our virtual class meetings with 9th grade football will not start until 9:10 am to allow those that participate in Strength Training time to get home and ready for the day. Please send the athlete with plenty of water.

The athletic trainers suggested players should try to purchase a 1 or 2 Gallon Water Jug as we get closer to training camp (Sept. 7th). Given the length of time of training, it would be best to isolate drinking in control measures. Links have been provided for examples in school colors.

Please don’t hesitate to email us with any questions that you might have.

Go Rangers!

Ranger Parents,

We hope that all of you are doing great. Please continue to keep the Rocha Family in your thoughts and prayers. We will be starting school on Thursday and we are excited to partner with you and help your Ranger get off to a great start. You will be getting several emails from teachers this week. Please don’t be overwhelmed, we are here to help. One of the first things we will talk about on Thursday is getting this virtual world organized properly and how to get the most out of this experience. We will meet with all our players via zoom on Tuesday to help them get ready for Thursday. Your athlete has received communication about the zoom meeting this Tuesday. Please help our facility make sure their computer systems are ready to function this week.

Please remember that even though school is starting we will not be able to work with our players in person until we get approval from Leander ISD. When we get approval even if a student/athlete is choosing virtual they will be able to workout with their team. Great news! Until then, we will be using our athletic periods to install our schemes, teach character, academics, and take care of all paperwork. Also, all online paperwork should be completed at this point. Today we communicated to all players through Google Classroom and Remind this same information to help them get ready. Our season is getting close. It is important that they work out every day. We post workouts in google classroom daily. We will continue to communicate as information comes out. We will also be having our preseason parent meeting as soon as we receive some important information that we have been waiting on. Hopefully this letter helps. Please don’t hesitate to email us with any questions that you might have.

Have a great week. Go Rangers!

How To Manage Distractions

By: Jeri Goldstein January 21, 2019

First, review your recent goals:

This will give you a great start for this new year by taking the high priority projects you didn’t get to and see whether they are still a priority. If they are, those items top your list of goals for the coming year.

Second, consider your priorities:

What goals do you really want to work towards next. Among those for consideration you might add any of those new incoming offers that could possibly be a distraction.

Third,  review the new goals list: 

Look at all those new goals and lets get real here. If you have a list of ten major goals for the year, either you are super human or you are being unrealistic. There is nothing that adds to overwhelm faster than a long list of goals. Look at your list and lets pair it down to three main goals. By keeping your list small, you set yourself up for success to accomplish each one. By focusing on these three, you are more easily able to stay on track and avoid all those new bright shiny distractions that keep you from achieving your goals.

Now one last really important thing to consider:

Do these goals inspire you to jump in and work on them? Do they motivate you to get up each morning and get started right away? If they do not, you might want to rethink your goals. If you are not committed to them, inspired by them and eager to work towards them, then you will be more likely attracted to other interesting, exciting bright shiny distractions that come your way.

If you would rather do anything other than what you set out to do, then you just might have the wrong goals. Please examine your goals very carefully and be certain that they are a perfect fit for you at this time in your career and life.

I’m all for challenging yourself so you may grow, but if you choose something you are not ready for, you will find yourself distracted towards things you can more easily handle. In other words, don’t run the marathon before you can walk five miles. Make sure your goals are achievable for you at this time In your career.

Take some time this month to set yourself up for success this year. How to manage distractions is accomplished by committing yourself to your priorities and your goals.

How are you managing all the distractions that come your way? Are you someone who easily gets distracted from your priorities?

Rangers,

We have been getting great feedback from players that are really following the workouts from google classroom on their own. Great work! The most important thing for players to remember during this time is to: wake up, start the nutrition process, workout, and get quality sleep at night. We can gain an advantage with this process. Currently, we do not have any new information to share about workouts opening back up at VRHS. We are finalizing our new football schedule. As soon as District 25-6A DEC approves the schedule we will release the new version.

This past week our coaches have been calling players to check on them and to make sure they are taking care of all online paperwork. We will continue to connect with them this week. Listed below are important links to help everyone take care of online paperwork and hopefully get players connected to our communication process. All practices and special events that our program had scheduled this week will be postponed at this time. We will continue to email everyone as new information becomes available. We are looking forward to our training camp starting on September 7th . As the first day of school approaches, we will be encouraging our athletes to get ready for virtual learning and help them start strong academically.

Have a great week. Go Rangers!

LISD LETTER

Parents/Guardians/Athletes,

Leander ISD Athletics would like to pass along an important update from the UIL regarding Preparticipation Physical Exams (Athletic Physicals) for the upcoming 2020-21 School Year.

Leander ISD policy normally requires an annual athletic physical prior to an athlete participating in any athletic practice/game with their respective school. Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic, the UIL is allowing any 2019-20 Athletic Physical to be valid for the 2020-21 School Year. Leander ISD recommends that each athlete complete an athletic physical annually but will allow the 2019-20 Athletic Physical to be valid for the 2020-21 school year per the UIL Legislative Council recommendations.

The requirement for the 2020-21 school year is that all parents & student athletes complete the Medical History Questionnaire that can be found on the Preparticipation Physical Exam form and can also be found as a part of the Rank One online forms that are also required to be completed. Once all online forms are complete, athletes will be allowed to practice and compete for the 2020-21 school year.

Under these new guidelines, an athlete would not need to see a physician for a full exam unless they meet the following criteria. Athletes meeting the criteria below will need a full physical exam by a physician of the family’s choice.

ATHLETES REQUIRED TO HAVE A PHYSICAL EXAM BY A PHYSICIAN to be eligible to participate in practices/games:

• Incoming 7th graders to athletics
•  New to athletics – Did not practice or compete in 2019-20 school year
•  No 2019-20 Preparticipation Physical Exam on record with the school
•  Answered “Yes” on any question on the Medical History questionnaire that was not previously cleared by written documentation from the treating physician. The athletic trainers will review the questions that were answered “yes” on and determine if a Physical Exam will be necessary.
• Any significant injury or condition that needed treatment by a physician since the student’s last physical exam

If an athlete does not meet above criteria, then they may use the 2019-20 Physical Exam as a valid 2020-21 physical and practice/compete as long as they have the following:

ATHLETES THAT DO NOT NEED A PHYSICIAN EXAM:

•  Have a 2019-20 Athletic Physical on file with the school
• Completed the 2020-21 Preparticipation Physical Exam Medical History questionnaire
• Has answered all “No” on the 2020-21 Medical History questionnaire
• Completed the Leander ISD Rank One online paperwork

If you have any questions, please reach out to the high school athletic trainer. Thank you.

Rangers,

We really missed seeing our players this past week at SWSC, and as of right now we are not allowed to have camp this next week. As most of you have heard by now the UIL released some dates for our football program. This was exciting news. The UIL announced that we could start football workouts on September 7th. Between now and then we hope to get some SWSC and skills training back. While we are waiting to hear a release date and time for SWSC from Travis County, LISD, etc. we will continue to
send workouts to our players to do at home. These workouts are critical during this time. Please encourage them to spend quality time on these workouts. We can control our nutrition, workouts, and sleep patterns during this time. Also, this is a great time for our players and parents to take care of all paperwork. If you received an email about Impact Testing, please have your player complete this online. Several weeks ago, we
attached the paperwork link that needs to be completed. I have attached it again in this letter. Even if their physical is good, everyone still must fill out the online paperwork. Our trainers and coaches will start checking online paperwork over the next 2 weeks.

UIL/Online Paperwork:

https://leanderisd.rankonesport.com/New/NewInstructionsPage.aspx

With the information we received from the UIL we will be working on our football schedule and important dates this week. We will get this information out to everyone as soon as possible. Please be patient as we must navigate restrictions by multiple governing bodies. Stay encouraged. Encourage each other. We will get through this.

Stay safe. Have a great week. Go Rangers!

Rangers,

This past week was one of our best weeks of camp. Our players continue to handle any and all safety measures that we must abide by well. This week we will be on the same schedule as last week. Camp will be Monday through Thursday and we will not be able to use Friday as a bad weather make up day this week (LISD Staff Development). Please make sure your athlete brings plenty of water and a mask to camp tomorrow. All questionnaires for the week are listed below.

We know there may be a lot of questions about start times, season, etc. Thank you for being patient with our staff. We may have to be week by week until we get clarification. We are monitoring any information we get daily from the TEA, UIL, and LISD. Whatever scenario they give us, we will do our very best to continue to help grow our athletes through the process to help them become not only better athletes, but also better people. We continue to train them on how to handle challenges and adversity. Help us keep them encouraged.

Go Rangers!

Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic, the UIL is allowing any 2019-20 Athletic Physical to be valid for the 2020-21 School Year. Leander ISD recommends that each athlete complete an athletic physical annually but will allow the 2019-20 Athletic Physical to be valid for the 2020-21 school year per the UIL Legislative Council recommendations.

The requirement for the 2020-21 school year is that all parents & student athletes complete the Medical History Questionnaire that can be found on the Preparticipation Physical Exam form and can also be found as a part of the Rank One online forms that are also required to be completed. Once all online forms are complete, athletes will be allowed to practice and compete for the 2020-21 school year.

Under these new guidelines, an athlete would not need to see a physician for a full exam unless they meet the following criteria. Athletes meeting the criteria below will need a full physical exam by a physician of the family’s choice.

ATHLETES REQUIRED TO HAVE A PHYSICAL EXAM BY A PHYSICIAN to be eligible to participate in practices/games:

• Incoming 7th graders to athletics
•  New to athletics – Did not practice or compete in 2019-20 school year
•  No 2019-20 Preparticipation Physical Exam on record with the school
•  Answered “Yes” on any question on the Medical History questionnaire that was not previously cleared by written documentation from the treating physician. The athletic trainers will review the questions that were answered “yes” on and determine if a Physical Exam will be necessary.
• Any significant injury or condition that needed treatment by a physician since the student’s last physical exam

If an athlete does not meet above criteria, then they may use the 2019-20 Physical Exam as a valid 2020-21 physical and practice/compete as long as they have the following:

ATHLETES THAT DO NOT NEED A PHYSICIAN EXAM:

•  Have a 2019-20 Athletic Physical on file with the school
• Completed the 2020-21 Preparticipation Physical Exam Medical History questionnaire
• Has answered all “No” on the 2020-21 Medical History questionnaire
• Completed the Leander ISD Rank One online paperwork

If you have any questions, please reach out to the high school athletic trainer. Thank you.
