Section 22-11E-1 Legislative findings. (a) The Legislature finds the following: (1) Concussions
are one of the most commonly reported injuries in children and adolescents who participate
in sports and recreational activities. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates
that as many as 3,900,000 sports-related and recreation-related concussions occur in the United

significant when a concussion or head injury is not properly evaluated and managed. (2) Concussions
are a type of brain injury that can range from mild to severe and can disrupt the way the
brain normally works. Concussions can occur in any organized or unorganized sport or recreational
activity and can result from a fall or from participants colliding with each other, the ground,
or with obstacles. Concussions occur with or without...
