Abstract

A recent report from Georgia Southern University highlights the epidemiology of concussive injuries in collegiate recreational athletes. The study found that concussions accounted for 12.4% of documented injuries in recreational sports, with a higher incidence in intramural sports compared to high school and NCAA sports. The researchers recommend that collegiate recreational departments consider these concussion rates when developing risk management strategies. The full report can be accessed for free online.
