Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests whether putting new concussion safety guidelines into practice in youth football clubs across Europe can help protect young players. It looks at how coaches, players, parents, referees, and medical staff can work together to make the sport safer.
