CONCUSSION AGREEMENTConcussion Agreement • September 7th, 2016
A concussion is a type of brain injury that changes the way the brain normally works. A concussion is caused by a bump, blow, or jolt to the head. Concussions can also occur from a blow to the body that causes the head and brain to move rapidly back and forth. Even what seems to be a mild bump to the head can be serious. Concussions can occur during practices or games in any sport or recreational activity. Your chances of sustaining a life altering injury are greatly increased if you aren`t fully recovered from a concussion. Practicing/playing with concussion symptoms can prolong your recovery. Practicing/playing with a concussion can increase your chances of getting another concussion. Telling someone could save your life or the life of a teammate.
