PLYMOUTH — A new Indiana law now requires schools to distribute information on and evaluate student athletes on the risk of concussions when engaged in sports.
The law (IC 20-34-14-7) is entitled “Concussion and Head Injuries.” Included in the law is the requirement that before beginning practices or an interscholastic or intramural sport, both the student a parent must sign a statement saying they have been informed of risks. Any student receiving a suspected concussion during either practices or games must be removed at the time of the injury.
