TBR takes concussion safety very seriously with coaching and programming designed to minimise chances of head injury. In all winter sports however risk of sustaining a concussion is real and head injuries need to be managed carefully. TBR athletes are encouraged to get a concussion baseline screening prior to getting on snow this winter. Having this up to date information prior to a head bump makes diagnosis of concussion more precise to facilitate a safer return to training. For those who haven’t already done so via a Snow Australia affiliated provider in the last few months, a baseline can be done through Alpine High Performance Centre at Mt Buller’s gym (Level 1, 1-10 Summit Rd, Mt Buller). Appointments will be available from the queens birthday weekend onwards and can be claimed through your private health insurance if you have extras on you policy. For appointments please contact 03 5777 6000. |
