HEADS UP CONCUSSION INFO
A concussion is a type of traumatic brain injury caused by a bump, blow, or jolt to the head, a hit to the body that causes the head/brain to move quickly back and forth. This movement can cause the brain to bounce or twist in the skull, creating chemical changes, stretching and/or damaging the brain cells. KSA takes concussion protocol seriously. Our coaches and parents should too!

Coaches may use this link to provide positive or constructive feedback on referees. This is not the forum to argue a call or report how you feel you were wronged during a game. Many of our referees are young and developing. This should be a resource to gather feedback and provide additional coaching data for our referee committee.
Your comments and ratings will be kept anonymous. Your name is only required if you want to be entered into the prize drawing. You will be entered into a drawing every time you submit feedback.
