Indiana bill would make concussion training mandatory for coaches

The Indianapolis Business Journal looked at a new bill that would make Indiana the first state to require high school football coaches to participate in a concussion training course. Talking to state Sen. Travis Holdman, the bill would require coaches to take such training every two years.

Statehouse News reported the bill also would require a 24-hour waiting period for any athlete sidelined for a suspected concussion.
