brain trauma by using impact data to identify kids who need more coaching so they can learn how to tackle and block without using their helmets.

brains to adjust, and one,
by finding that players who sustained more than 50 hits per game, were much more likely than those who sustained fewer hits to be «flagged»
by ImPACT and / or fMRI results as having neurocognitive deficits or altered
brain activity, suggested that players be limited to a certain number of plays per game (a hard rule to implement, given the prevalence of two - way players in the high school game).
