I know that because SWMBO was a Soccer Mom (w/Eldest Spawn) and even with a league rule (27ya!) the boys would try heading balls in practice just for 'fun.' It all adds up, he said…

Anyway, the guy on the radio talking about the latest homicidal/suicidal football player being confirmed as having #CTE made me concerned about my 4yrs getting water polo balls in the head and landing dives badly, 40+ ya. Might be why I'm chronically grumpy…

Listening to an expert on Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy spitting fire on NPR. Fun(ish) Facts:

1. 12 seasons playing football *at any age* gives you a 50% chance of #CTE.

2. Yeah, hockey & some other sports are problems too, some of which have recognized the problem & made rule changes, some not.

I also got the idea that if they don't already, junior soccer should prohibit "heading" balls outright because it's not about concussions alone but about # of head impacts. Kids practice that.
