Concussions can also occur from a blow to the body that causes the head to move rapidly back and forth. Even a “ding,” “getting your bell rung,” or what seems to be mild bump or blow to the head can be serious. Concussions can occur in any sport or recreation activity. So, all coaches, parents, and athletes need to learn concussion signs and symptoms and what to do if a concussion occurs. The CDC (CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION) has put together a group of resources to educate the youth sports community on concussions. CLICK HERE TO VISIT THE CDC WEBSITE ON CONCUSSIONS.
