Concussion Management

The Head Injury Assessment (HIA) protocol is a three-stage process introduced by World Rugby for elite adult teams to assist with the identification, diagnosis and management of head impact events with the potential for a concussion.

This World Rugby Concussion Guidance document has been developed to provide guidance and information to persons involved in the non-elite level of the game of Rugby regarding concussion and suspected concussion.

Learn the signs and symptoms of a concussion so you understand when an athlete might have a suspected concussion.
