@stevendonn@peterrobinson86 Concussions happen in sport, but also playgrounds,PE, general falls, work etc. No one wants to stop people enjoying any form of activity and we can’t eliminate all concussion risk. But we CAN do better at managing concussions to keep everyone enjoying the sports they love safely.
@stevendonn@peterrobinson86 Such a shame that this is the perception. The groups I have worked with all have the goal to address making sport safer. Complete Concussion Management Inc. and Love of the Game and others have identified concussion education and management is the issue.
@theAliceRoberts So sorry for his family, friends and colleagues. A remarkable man who engaged us all with his digestible delivery of science, helping us all to live well. Sending my best to you too @theAliceRoberts. Donna
Great news for female athletes! The first all-female-athlete study finds 12% with pituitary dysfunction after a concussion. More research on female athletes is finally happening!

We're sad to report that world marathon record-holder Kelvin Kiptum and his coach have lost their lives in a road accident in Kenya.
Kiptum was 24 years old and ran his world record of 2:00:35 at last year's Chicago Marathon.
A few harder days coming up as we reach the 13th anniversary of Benjamins tragic passing.
Could I ask you to share this Life Saving message far and wide 🙏
If In Doubt, Sit Them Out.

@Steve_Tiernan Please get that first aider to check out @CCMConcussions ! No excuses anymore for this. Plenty of training out there. Hope the 14 year old can access a trained clinician to deal with this @MarleenMarthaO
Today is Rowan’s Law Day.
We honor the memory of Rowan Stringer, a young rugby player who died from Second Impact Syndrome after sustaining multiple concussions within the same week.
Since 2018, Rowan's Law protects Ontario athletes by mandating concussion education in sports.
@alanpearcephd @australian Hi Alan, is there a way to read your article without a subscription? I'm often frustrated by the insistence that one day a helmet will prove to mitigate risk. I will never see how with all we know of mechanism of injury

@AdamMeakins Very sad to read this. not always agreed with all your opinions/delivery, but every single one of them has made me think and ? what I do & why. Thankfully, I already did practice what you preach though and share your utter frustration at the dross that I’ve seen over 32 yrs in PT
Sounds simple doesn’t it.
Why do we complicate it then ?
We don’t test kids for Brain Injuries on a pitch 🧠❌
