🙏🏉 Cléa, une adolescente de 17 ans victime d'un violent choc à la tête le week-end dernier lors d'un match de rugby amateur, est décédée mercredi à l'hôpital des suites de ses blessures. Son père a confié ses premiers mots au Parisien après le drame.

@AllBlacks @worldrugby @dominicrumbles @ProgressiveRug @Head4Change Tupaea: “visibly stumbling”, “wobbly on his feet”, “dazed”. Gets up, stumbles, then drops to a knee. Medic right there. "Failed HIA". Why not immediate permanent removal for clear balance disturbance?

Two young American football players have sadly died following on-field incidents. Two lives lost. Two families destroyed
The questions cannot be ignored
How many more players must die before collision sports put human lives ahead of the spectacle? 🏉🧠

🔬 PEPTIDE RESEARCH: DID YOU KNOW?
A Certificate of Analysis (COA) can help verify a research compound's identity and purity.
But a COA doesn't automatically prove sterility, safety or suitability for human use
Understanding the science matters

⚽ Supporting families. Raising awareness. Creating change.
We caught up with Mark Solan, Founder & CEO of Team Solan and a long-time Head Safe Football supporter, at our Lunching & Launching event at Middleton Hall Retirement Village.
Mark spoke about the importance of raising awareness and making sure families affected by CTE have the support they need.
It’s about protecting players today, and the families of tomorrow.

Excellent referring by Craig Evans at the w/e when insisting on confirmation from medics that Gavin Coombes didn't need a HIA - I thought he did, but Craig did what he could - More refs should do the same @worldrugby @ProgressiveRug @Head4Change @dominicrumbles @PremSportsTV
