OWs Move Into Concussion Management

Dr Sam Barke OW (2000-05) and Nick Somers OW (1984-89) have founded “Return2Play”, a company which helps schools and clubs effectively manage a player’s return to play after a concussion.

Concussion is a hot topic in contact sports, where increased awareness of its effects and the potential risks if poorly managed have rightly brought it to the attention of the press.

Return2Play is a web-based system that allows parents, coaches and medical staff to track a players progress along a return to play pathway before linking them with a sport-friendly doctor to certify that they have made a full recovery.

OWs are welcome to be amongst the first to view the introductory video at www.return2play.org.uk.
