Great manual that'll definitely aid both the coaching stuff & the players to understand and make decisions regarding critical circumstances of concussion

Simon Peter Ocakacon

Excellent, well designed and informative. Linked to the quizzes and so on. It would be nice if it could be linked to the Rugby Passport Account so as to complete the requisite quizzes within the app.

Very good. Practical, solid advice to manage concussion in sports, not only rugby. It provides a rather quick method to identify if a player sustained a concussion or not. And then make a decision about continue to play or not. It provides sound guidelines in how to manage a player who sustained a concussion in the following days until deciding when he is ready to return.

Excellent on identifying brain injuries & removing from play, not so strong on GRTP. Nothing age specific for instance. Resistance training given as one of the GRTP stages; not really relevant if you're working with 11 year olds who never do resistance training. Still an excellent resource, just a pity Concussion is used rather than Brain Injury.

About time this was on Android, but as World Rugby keep tweeting about the Apple version didn't realise it was.
