Illinois Concussion Laws - Are you compliant?

​

Illinois state law requires ALL coaches, whether working within a school district or club, to complete a 2 hour concussion certification course every other year. SportsBrain has developed a curriculum and is an approved provider of this educational course. A SportsBrain representative can come to your school, or provide a Zoom training, and provide this 2 hour course to certify all of your coaches - Contact David Bookstaff to learn more.

​

Concussion #2 can be fatal

95 percent of Second Impact Syndrome (SIS) occurrences happen to youth athletes 18 years old and under. This is because their brains are still developing. SIS is a rare, but can be fatal medical emergency. It occurs when a child sustains another concussion while their previous brain injury has not yet properly healed. To protect your athlete from SIS, you must get an annual comprehensive baseline concussion test. This information will tell your physician if your child has returned to their baseline brain activity and processing levels after sustaining a concussion.

From initial baseline testing to properly setting up progressive exertion and return to play, and the classroom protocols, there is none better.”
