How common are concussions in softball? My daughter got 3 and decided the risk of playing was too great. Anyone else ever have issues?
... the issue is most parents, coaches, and/or umps don't recognize the signs especially the ones that develop symptoms later. Before anyone goes blasting me, I'm not talking the upfront signs either where it's clear-cut, but the signs that show up the next day if no symptoms appear.
How is the ump going to recognize the "symptoms that develop later"?
As a softball ump and a volleyball official, I have to be certified every three years in Concussion Training by OHSAA. We know what to look for as events happen, but if signs don't develop until after the game, there's nothing we can do.
