[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]even at u12, they really have not been taught to use the header, so its minimal. most girls can barely cross the ball in a way that requires a head ball manuever. the concussion issues i have seen have resulted from person to person contact or the resultant fall. [/quote] OK so what do you say to your daughter when she enters HS years and want to play varsity or competitive travel soccer? Will you let your daughter play? Bigger risk of concussions from contact and heading the ball.[/quote] She loves the sport and its a known risk, educate about symptoms, behaviors and be careful. we couldnt do anything if we were always avoiding potential issues.
