Don't be a HEADCASE

Players should be aware of HEADCASE - Concussion Awareness

RECOGNISE - know the symptoms and signs of concussion

REMOVE - any player you suspect has got a concussion IMMEDIATELY. Arrange for further assessment by a health care professional.

RECOVER - Give players time to recover fully as you would with any other injury.

RETURN - all players must follow a step-wise Graduated Return to Play (GRTP) and must not go back to rugby/sport until they have been cleared to do so by a doctor.
