After an extensive review process, we have now finalised The Management of Sport-Related Concussion in Australian Football (March 2024) (AFL Community Concussion Guidelines). These guidelines apply to players in all Australian Football competitions outside AFL / AFLW listed players, provided their recovery from concussion has been managed under the Advanced Care Settings of the AFL/AFLW team.
The AFL Community Concussion Guidelines (along with other supporting resources) are available here.
We encourage everyone to register and attend a free webinar next Tuesday 26th March (8pm AEDT) where Dr Michael Makdissi (AFL Chief Medical Officer) will provide further information on the guidelines including the key changes. Click here to register.
We are also finalising a pre-recorded concussion education webinar that will step through the guidelines and we will make this available in coming weeks via the Play.AFL website here.
