Coach Youth Sports Concussions Ed, “The Jake Snakenberg Youth Concussion Act” by Senators Spence and Newell and Representatives Summers and Todd requires that coaches of youth athletic activities be educated in how to recognize a concussion and requires that kids be pulled from play if a concussion is suspected. When passed the bill was the first in the nation to extend these important protections beyond school-sanctioned sports and ensure coverage of club sports and recreation leagues.
