I came across the following link today while doing some cleaning of my computer. After spending a few days at the U18 Nationals I thought it would be wise to recommend to all the coaches (and parents as well) to check this site out and enroll in this free course. Anything we can do on our end to help prevent the large amount of head injuries in our sport and others is certainly in the best interest of our players and their families.

Please check the site and course out when you have the chance. If you know of any other similar courses please feel free to let me know or pass them along to the group.
With best regards,
