Abstrakt: Participation in youth sport is not without the potential for risk including exposure to injury and sport-related concussion (SRC). SRC is an injury that disproportionately affects active youths and carries with it numerous psychological, social, and biological implications. This article aims to (1) examine the scope of the problem that SRC poses for the athletic community, (2) explore the social impact that SRC and media portrayal of this injury has, (3) discuss how this may affect an athlete who has experience SRC and efforts to return to activity, (4) and evaluate a meaningful way to navigate all of these factors with athletes who experience SRC.
