This short eLearning course is designed to help Gaelic Games (Football, Hurling, Camogie and Ladies' Football) players, coaches, match officials and other volunteers recognise the signs and symptoms of concussion and understand the basic principles of concussion management.

 

The key message is - Recognise & Remove. Recognise the symptoms of concussion and permanently remove a player displaying any of those symptoms from the game or training session.
