Concussions
Concussions are a very serious type of brain trauma that makes your brain bleed and are very common in boxing and especially in football. In football way too many people are getting concussions, the NFL and the NCAA have made rules about concussions but they haven't really helped. This is why we must do something about it.
Our solutions
We came up with a couple of solutions, that include improving the helmets with putting more technology in them and teaching the coaches and the players the proper techniques of football. We believe that this will help prevent concussions.
How our solutions will help
If the football helmet makers put some more high- tech technology in their brand of helmets the players will have a way lower chance of getting a serious concussions. Also, if we teach players and coaches the proper techniques the coaches can help prevent concussions.
