Concussion Training and Law
As of January 2012, all coaches of youth ages 11 to 18 will be required to receive annual concussion training. If you coach any division ages 10 or higher, you will need to take this training prior to coaching.
In summary, if a coach suspects a child has sustained a concussion following an observed or suspected blow to the head or body, the child will immediately be removed from the activity.
Parents/guardians are required by law to obtain medical clearance from a health care provider with training and specialization in concussion evaluation and management before the child may return to play.
