Concussion in Sport: Free App Set for Government-backed Trial

An app that helps identify and manage concussion in grassroots and school sport is set to be scrutinised in a two-year government-backed trial.

It allows users to record and manage head injuries, suspected concussions and other sports-related injuries.

That information can then be shared instantly with all relevant parties.

The app has been well received in initial trials, and sports minister Stuart Andrew said: “I would encourage organisations to get involved.”

In April, the government announced UK-wide concussion guidelines for grassroots sport aimed at parents, coaches, referees and players.
