ProACT Award for Concussion Safety Excellence
At ProACT Concussion, we believe the strongest programs don’t just meet minimum safety standards — they set new ones.
Each year, we honor one club that demonstrates an outstanding commitment to concussion awareness, baseline testing, and proactive player protection.
This recognition celebrates organizations that prioritize education, implement comprehensive baseline testing, and foster a culture of care where athlete health always comes first.
