YOUR ATHLETE TOOK A HARD HIT.

WOULD YOU KNOW WHAT TO LOOK FOR?

Get the FREE Concussion Quick Guide for Athletes, Parents & Coaches

A concussion doesn't always look serious.

The athlete might get up.

They might walk back to the huddle.

They might even say:

“I'm good, Coach.”

That doesn't always mean they're okay.

I've played Division I football, coached high school football and earned a master's degree in Sports Administration. I've seen sports from the player's side, the coach's side and the administration side.

I put this guide together for one simple reason:

Help athletes, parents and coaches know what to look for BEFORE they need this information.

THIS ISN'T ABOUT MAKING ATHLETES AFRAID TO PLAY.

IT'S ABOUT PLAYING SMARTER.

I love football.

The game teaches toughness, discipline, teamwork and accountability.

But toughness shouldn't mean pretending you're okay when you're not.

An athlete shouldn't have to choose between protecting their health and proving they're tough.

Sometimes the smartest thing a player can say is:

“Coach, something isn't right.”

And sometimes the smartest thing a coach can say is:

“You're done for today.”
