Abstract

Acute traumatic head injury associated with football usually occurs in heading. Especially sports-related concussion (SRC) occurs frequently. SRC in football have recently earned increased attention due to world-wide popularity. The SRC incidence rate was 0.3 ~ 9 / 1000 hours athlete exposures (AE). But it is under reported. The most frequent injury mechanism was head to head contact in heading duels. SRC rates are higher during competition and in female players. More research is needed to better detect and understand the mechanism of SRC.
