The word concussion was unheard of in youth sports a decade ago. The injury was indeed occurring, but youth athletes were often told to 'shake it off' after 'getting their bell rung'. Science and increased awareness about concussion and brain health have transformed the way youth parents, coaches, and players pursue athletics. Fear of incurring concussions, as well as incomplete or incorrect information, is leading some parents to keep their children out of contact sports, such as football and soccer, where concussion is more prevalent.Back in the Game: Why Concussion Doesn't Have to End Your Athletic Career does not dwell on perpetuating fears but, rather, provides the most uptodate understanding of the condition. This is a realworld discussion of what science and medicine know, what parents and coaches need to understand about concussion, evaluation and treatment, and what possible postconcussive issues exist.The expertise and experiences of noted sports neurologist Jeffrey S. Kutcher, MD, along with reporting and interviews by awardwinning sports journalist Joanne C. Gerstner, make this book a timely, relevant, and real discussion about concussions in youth sports. Athletes and professional coaches who have participated in the formation of this book include twotime Olympic gold medalist soccer player Kate Markgraf, former NHL/Team Canada head coach Andy Murray, champion XGames snowboarder Ellery Hollingsworth, along with an array of youth parents, coaches, and athletes from across the country.
