CHANGES IN WISCONSIN LAW RELATING TO STUDENT ATHLETES AND CONCUSSIONS

This Wisconsin Legislature enacted Wisconsin Statute Section 118.293 in April of this year, seeking to protect student athletes from the dangers of head concussions.  The act applies to youth athletics and requires an athlete who sustains a concussion to be immediately removed from play and practice until evaluated by a "health care provider".  This law applies to all youth sports and adds a duty to those coaches, officials and organizers of youth sporting activities.  This law is similar to the WIAA rule, "When in Doubt, Sit it out".  Medical concerns about concussions have changed dramatically over the past years, and lead to this enactment.
