Raising Athletes: Head injuries on the high school football field

  • Parent - Manchester · 1 month ago
    The Memorial JV soccer coach had all players take an on-line test at the beginning of the season. The test can be retaken after a head injury to determine if there is a concussion, or lingering symptoms.

    Caution: Look for symptoms above other than:

    Vacant stare or befuddled facial expression and Difficulty focusing attention.

    These 2 seem very common in teenagers!!!
