Sports Concussion

​

Concussion in sport is a serious injury that may cause both short term and long-term reductions in cognitive function of the athlete.  Recently, increased awareness has led governing bodies, and sports organisations to take steps to understand more and to mitigate the risk of occurrence. 

 

In 2017 FIFpro released the results of a study of 576 former professional footballers, ice hockey and rugby players from eight countries that had, or had not, suffered concussion(s) during their playing career. 

​

Those athletes who had suffered 6 concussions or more were between 2 to 5 times more likely to mental health issues, than those who had never been concussed.
