Concussions in Youth Sports
ALTHOUGH NOT COMMON IN SWIMMING, CONCUSSIONS CAN OCCUR IN THE WATER AND IN DRYLAND ACTIVITIES.

A New FREE CDC Online Training Helps Prepare Coaches and Parents in Less than 30 Minutes.

Heads Up: Concussion in Youth Sports is a free online training available to coaches, parents, and others helping to keep athletes safe from concussion. The training was developed by CDC’s Injury Center in partnership and other leading organizations. It features interviews with leading experts and interactive exercises to help coaches and parents recognize a concussion and know how to respond if their athlete might have a concussion.

Coaches and Parents Will Learn:
• To understand a concussion and the potential consequences of this injury,
• To recognize concussion signs and symptoms and how to respond,
• About steps for returning to activity (play and school) after a concussion, and
• To focus on prevention and preparedness to help keep athletes safe season-to-season.

Remember, if you think an athlete has a concussion:
• Do not assess it yourself,
• Take him/her out of play, and
• Seek the advice of a health care professional.
