[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Coach here -

It's unfortunate your club couldn't find someone to cover that match. That being said we can't know if a different decision would have been made.

Your team manager was probably a little overwhelmed and obviously wasn't watching your child as well as you would. That being said you were called over at half time, so there was obviously some sort of observation (probably the big knot in his head!)

My guess is the lack of subs probably played a role in why he wasn't taken off and looked at when the incident occurred. I also feel most referees at the travel level would call on a coach to look at a player if he felt there was a concussion, especially if there was a stoppage of play like the PK.

My guess is he was feeling his head partially due to pain, and probably a little freaked out to have a lump there... it can be a little scary.

Having said that, both the team manager and more importantly yourself determined at half time that he was good to continue, so I'm not sure what the discussion is about unless you're asking if you should have taken him off the field permanently.

I'm glad your son is OK and passed his concussion exams.

Perhaps the question would be, looking back on things, would you have done anything different?
