KHSAA Discourages The Postgame Handshake Between Teams
#20
What is the KHSAA policy regarding concussions? I firmly believe ANY concussion should be evaluated by a neurologist, MRI and other tests. This may cost each schools insurance carrier, but this is better than the possibility of long term problems, ie. depression,suicide or dribbling oatmeal off their chin at age 45.
Concussions should be taken more seriously or I am sure at some point attorneys will get involved and as the NFL, a class action lawsuit will someday be the result.
I have witnessed kids with a concussion playing on, perhaps taken out and back at practice with a simple follow the finger test. Protecting the kids should be the priority, not winning a high school football game.


The KHSAA has eliminated sportsmanship,afraid of a fight. I am more concerned with concussion policy being strict. 1 concussion and you should miss the season,really evaluate whether football is worth it or not before deciding to play the next season.
