Concussion - 2nd Impact Syndrome

A player is at risk of a serious and possibly fatal blow if they return to training before a concussion has resolved.

They should be symptom free at each stage before progressing, and if any symptoms develop, go back a stage.

Any player/athlete with a second concussion within 12 months, a history of multiple concussions or prolonged symptoms should be assessed and managed by medically trained staff
