• Concussions
• Nutrition
• Dehydration and heat-related conditions
• Musculoskeletal injuries

The recent launch of the nonprofit Athletic TIPS program — supported by everyone from health care professionals to professional athletic directors to retired New York Giants hall-of-fame legend Michael Strahan — was a direct response to those dire numbers.
