During the last decades, the sports community and sports-medicine community have learned how concussion damages the human brain over time.

Now, sports organizations and International Federations, take on prevention and awareness measures for concussion. Overarching FIG Family’s health and well-being, FIG Anti-Doping, Medical and Scientific Commission issues FIG-CONCUSSION GUIDELINES.

There are three documents in the guidelines. FIG-CONCUSSION GUIDELINES delineates from the assessment at venues to returning strategy for each discipline. FIG – Sports Concussion Overview and FIG Concussion Injury Advice Sheet are useful at training and competition sites.
