Some of the nation's largest youth sports organizations are forming an alliance to address concussions.

The number of sports- and recreation-related emergency room visits for traumatic brain injuries, including concussions, was estimated at 248,Austin Hooper Falcons Jersey UK,418 for people ages 10-19 in 2009, the most recent year data was available, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Overall there were about 2.6 million sports injuries treated in ERs for that age group.
Tony Strickland, who heads the Sports Concussion Institute, said as many as 60 million U.S. youngsters play sports. He said it's nearly impossible to determine how many sustain concussions because many go undiagnosed.
Strickland said youth sports have never been safer. He attributes that to growing awareness about the dangers of concussions,Basketball Shoes Cheap Online, better methods of diagnosing and treating concussions and state laws that mandate a young athlete not be allowed to return to play until he or she is cleared by a medical professional.

Coalition members also will, among other things, share findings from their sport-specific concussion research, pool financial resources for joint studies and coordinate outreach programs to educate athletes and parents about concussions.
"As is often the case, you're stronger collectively than individually," US Lacrosse chief executive Steve Stenersen said Sunday. "There is understandable concern about this injury nationally. We want to make sure that concern is appropriately addressed but doesn't dissuade kids from playing sports."
The coalition started discussions earlier this year and held a planning session in September. Organizers said its underlying purpose is to enhance participation in sports by providing a safer playing environment.
