Abstract

Every day, thousands of athletes participate in sports that are conducive to injuries of the head and face structures. Health-care professionals, coaches, trainers, and the players themselves should be prepared to provide emergency care. More importantly these individuals along with sports administrators, should contribute to the prevention of sports injuries by providing, mandating, and motivating the use of devices that are designed to protect the athlete.
