Concussions in ultimate frisbee

Programme Overview

Concussion Health in Ultimate Frisbee

Ultimate Frisbee is fast, reactive and physically demanding. Although it is officially a non-contact sport, players still run the risk of player to player contact and player to ground contact.

 

This course helps Ultimate players, coaches and captains understand how concussion happens in the sport, how to recognise possible signs and symptoms, and why it is important to remove a player from play when concussion is suspected.

​

With concussion rates in Ultimate reported at around 26% lifetime prevalence, education is an important part of keeping athletes safe.

 

This course provides practical, sport-specific guidance on recognising concussion, responding safely, and supporting a gradual return to training and competition.
