Check the condition of your child’s protective gear (helmet shellsand cages for football, lacrosse, and hockey) and make sure it fits properly. Ensure that your child’s coach is aware of—and following—thesafest practices for suspected concussions (such as a required waitingperiod before putting a player back in the game). Make sure the team’s athletic trainer has a cordless screwdriveron hand during games to remove a helmet’s face mask if there’sa possible spine injury. Encourage your school to create or enforce rules regarding concussions.In 2010, Massachusetts enacted a rule that requires high school and middleschool athletes with a suspected head injury or concussion to be removedfrom the game (or practice) for the entire day. They can’t returnuntil they receive written medical authorization, and everyone (coaches,trainers, parent volunteers — even marching band directors)must participate in annual concussion training. Talk with your young athlete about the risks associated with concussions—especiallyrepeated head injuries. Explain how to identify the symptoms and discusstheir options to sit out during practice or a game, even if the coachdoesn’t require it.
