NCAA CONCUSSION GUIDELINES:

The NCAA is committed to the prevention, identification, evaluation and management of concussions. With this said they have adopted guidelines that govern how sports medicine personnel are to manage concussions. 

We developed an assessment program will allow us to have a baseline assessment for each athlete in contact and collision sports here at Worcester State.  This will help us add another measure to determine when it is safe for you to return. 

Here is a link to the NCAA Heath and Saftey page for more information about concussions. Please read this information and be prepared to electronically sign a statement that you have read the information on concussions and understand it.
