[quote=Anonymous]I don't think most American kids are going to reach the threshold for head damage. They are not heading balls at FIFA level pro-velocity, playing ANYWHERE near the number of games a FIFA player will play in their lifetime---or training sessions either. They aren't playing at the speed or impact of these players. I feel relatively safe with my boys in soccer. There is risk in everything and it is an acceptable risk. My kids are 14 and 12 and the heading is minimal for now. My son has a teammate who has had multiple concussions---now that is crazy. I would have pulled my kid and put him in track/cross country because damage upon damage....I think this kid is up to 4-5. That's pretty f'd up.[/quote]
