This kit, aimed towards middle and high schools, as well as community recreation programs, provides athletic trainers and coaches with a comprehensive concussion program.

The Sports Concussion Tool Kit also covers return-to-play guidelines after a concussion, how to communicate with parents about concussion symptoms and recovery, and collaborating with educators on classroom supports.

    "Concussions are a serious risk, especially for children and adolescents," said Marilyn Lash, vice president and senior editor at Lash&Associates Publishing/Training, Inc. "A child's brain continues developing all the way through adolescence and an injury, such as a concussion, interrupts that development. It is important that every family, player, athletic trainer, coach, and school should be educated about the signs, symptoms and consequences of sports concussions."
