Become a Concussion
Legacy Champion
What is a Concussion Legacy Champion?
Concussion Legacy Champions are concussion safety ambassadors who have taken the next step in their advocacy beyond giving the Team Up Against Concussions speech.
Every Concussion Legacy Champion receives special recognition on our website, and, for a limited time only, a free Team Up Against Concussions T-shirt!
How do you become a Concussion Legacy Champion?
Concussion Legacy Champions are ambassadors who have done the following:
- Committed to becoming a Concussion Legacy Captain and given the Team Up Against Concussions speech to their team.
- Taken our Concussion Captains Quiz and post about the quiz on social media with graphics like the ones pictured here.
Commit to becoming a Concussion Legacy Captain
Concussion Legacy Captains are CLF ambassadors committed to achieving our vision of concussion safety without compromise. Captains will give the Team Up Against Concussions speech to their sports teams every season to set the tone that no athlete with a concussion should return to play before their brain is ready.
Every Concussion Legacy Captain gets a free Team Up Against Concussions wristband and Captains’ card to help them give the speech that could save a season, a career, or even a life.
Take our Concussion Captains Education Quiz
Beyond giving the Team Up Against Concussions speech, Captains can help keep their teammates safe by learning more about concussions, the signs and symptoms of the injury, the risks of playing through a concussion, and what to do if they or someone on their team may suffer one.
The Concussion Captains Education Quiz is 20 questions and takes roughly 15 minutes to complete. The quiz teaches as it goes and is a great supplement for any Concussion Legacy Captains’ concussion safety toolkit.
When mismanaged, concussions can have devastating consequences. However, with proper management and support, concussion patients can expect a full recovery.
