Galway Bay fm newsroom - GMIT is to host a free public conference on concussion in sport this month. (29/3)

It's the first in a series of events under an EU funded international project entitled "Get your Head in the Game - Sport Concussion Awareness and Training".

It aims to gain an in-depth understanding of concussion in amateur sport settings and support the development of concussion-specific training.

The consortium's findings will be presented at a public conference at GMIT on Tuesday, March 29th - further information is available at ConcussionInSport.eu.
