NO PARKING IN THE REAR/SOUTH SIDE OF DOBSON HIGH SCHOOL

Park ONLY in the front of the school

This year we do not have the access to park in the rear parking areas of Dobson High School. Gates will usually be locked preventing any parking in the back.
Should the gate be unlocked for a weekend school activity, and you decide to park in the rear area, you are taking a chance that the gates will be locked behind you while you’re attending a game, and you will be unable to remove your vehicle from the parking area until the school opens on Monday. No AYSO volunteer will be able to assist you in getting the gate unlocked.

Keep Your Kids Hydrated

Tips On Preventing Heat Illnesses

When you are watching sports, have you noticed that the first thing that the players do when they have a break is get something to drink? They drink every chance they get throughout the game. That's how important proper hydration is to safety and athletic performance.

Proper hydration is as important to athletic safety as any protective equipment. In fact, heat illnesses are among the most dangerous sports injuries, and some of the most preventable. AYSO has some tips on how to make sure your soccer player remains adequately hydrated. While proper hydration is always important, it is something to pay particular attention to as we roll into the summer months, especially in areas of increased humidity.

Did you know that when you are thirsty, you are already dehydrated?

"Your body can't keep up with the loss of fluids," according to Herbalife's Vice President of Medical Affairs and Education, Dr. Luigi Gratton. Your body has thirst indicators, and when you are thirsty-your body is telling you that you are already dehydrated.

Did you know there are two types of fluid loss?

One type of fluid loss is "sensible" fluid loss. That is losing fluids through sweat and urine. A second type of fluid loss is "insensible" fluid loss, which is losing fluids through breathing. "The water gets broken down into CO2, and you breathe it out, so during exercise your lungs blow out a lot of fluid you don't see. Parents will say their kid isn't sweating a lot and she hasn't had to use the bathroom, so she isn't losing any fluids. Not true. She is actually losing a tremendous amount of fluids," Dr. Luigi explains.
