Evaluating huddles to improve concussion safety in soccer
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study looks at whether a new approach called 'huddles' can help improve concussion safety for young soccer players. If you are a coach or have a child in this age group, the study may help protect players from concussions.
