Team Up Against Concussions is a 30-45 minute interactive education program for schools, community groups, and athletic programs to foster a safer concussion culture within sports, the classroom, and life. Through Team Up Against Concussions, trained volunteers educate students about concussions through discussion, video, and interactive games.
The Team Up Against Concussions program will be launching in the UK shortly.
Become a Concussion Legacy Captain
Concussion Legacy Captains was launched in 2022 to expand on our concussion awareness social media campaign, formally known as Team Up Speak Up. Our Team Up Speak Up speech has reached 7 million athletes across North America, representing 1,600 organizations to date and will now be offered in the UK.
The CLF Captains program asks athletes to commit to sharing our vision of concussion safety without compromise with their teams. Each season, captains will give the Team Up speech to their teams to set the tone that no athlete with a concussion should return to play before their brain is ready.
A concussion is a type of traumatic brain injury, or TBI, caused by a bump, blow, or jolt to the head or by a hit to the body that causes the head and brain to move rapidly back and forth. Many concussions go unreported and untreated, making it extremely important to know how to recognize them.
