How CTE is Impacting Sports

CTE stands for Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy and is a disease caused by repetitive head injury and/or concussions.  Obviously head injuries and concussions are a concern for soccer players and we’ve had some frightening personal experiences with BSG.  It’s a very scary thing and as parents we need all the information we can get.

Has your player ever had a concussion?
