Concussion Prevention and Concussion Recovery are both hugely important to our family and our teams. Once an athlete has a concussion, it is our experience with one of our kiddos, that it became easier and easier to get subsequent concussions.
Follow-up - To the event mentioned in Reel:
We messaged the parents of our player and provided them some resources that we as coaches have had training on, so that they would be in a better position to have an informed, collective, and productive conversation with their child and their child's school coach. The information in this reel, is based on US Youth Soccer Club guidance, specific school sport guidance could not be found, at time of publishing... only guidance to support school athletes in concussion recovery.
*Note: This post does not contain medical advice, but a recap of a personal experience and information from US Youth Soccer, on concussion prevention. This post is meant to be informative & capture our personal experience, through the lens of a parent and youth soccer coach.
