Concussion - what is it ?
Concussion is a temporary disturbance of neurological function following trauma.
The Primary consideration in all participation decisions must be the safety of all participants. In a national stakeholder survey conducted in 2017 it was found that only 57% of players and parents were aware of Rugby Australia’s Concussion Management guidance and procedures
Only 36% correctly identified the minimum period before return to play.
