AHAI Concussion Initiative for Illinois Players

Head Injury and Concussion Management
presented by
Amateur Hockey Association of Illinois (AHAI), AthletiCo Physical Therapy, The Chicago Blackhawks and the Midwest Center for Concussion Care came together to create the A Step aHead initiative to combat one of the most common head injury: concussion. These four groups pledge to educate the Illinois youth hockey community on the importance of concussion management and to be proactive with implementing baseline testing. Through A Step aHead, we will offer free baseline concussion testing, as well as educational programs, to youth hockey players in the AHAI program.
ImPACT baseline testing is available at AthletiCo from November 1, 2011 until February 1, 2012 for all AHAI team member’s Bantam Level or higher (ages 13-18).
