Study examines concussion rates after Wisconsin's mandatory cap on the amount and duration of full contact activities among players
New research shows that limiting the amount of full-contact tackling during high school football practices can have a big impact on reducing the number of concussions among players.
A University of Wisconsin-Madison study presented at the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) National Conference & Exhibition in Washington, DC, examined sports-related concussion rates among Wisconsin high school football players after the state's interscholastic athletic association mandated new limits on the amount and duration of full-contact activities during team practices.
