[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why did the referee allow him to keep playing after getting kicked in the head? Why did you as a parent allow your child to keep playing when you saw the goose egg bump and scratch at half time? [/quote]

I don't think the referee has the authority to remove a player from a game. [/quote]

In Youth Soccer, in many states, they do:

If a referee observes a player who exhibits the signs, symptoms, or behaviors of a concussion, referees are [b]required[/b] to:

Remove the player from practice or game competition.
Prevent the player from returning to play or any sports activity the same day that he/she is removed.
Prohibit the player from participating in future practices, games, or any soccer activities until AYSO has received written clearance of return to play from a physician or other licensed heath care provider.

English FA guidelines are similar:

"If there is any suspicion of the payer having sustained a concussion, the player must be removed from the field of play, and not allowed to return."[/quote]
