The IHSA 訴訟 捜し出すs 類似の 医療の 監視するing of Illinois high school football players, though it doesn't (一定の)期間 out how such a program would operate. It 競うs new 規則s should 含む 義務的な baseline 実験(する)ing of all players before each season to help 決定する the severity of any concussion during the season.

The 訴訟 only 的s the Illinois 協会. High school football isn't overseen by a 選び出す/独身 国家の 団体/死体 同等(の) to the NCAA, but rather by school boards, 明言する/公表する 法律 and 50 separate 協会s. Siprut says he ーするつもりであるs to とじ込み/提出する 控訴s against other 明言する/公表する 治める/統治するing 団体/死体s.
Washington was the first 明言する/公表する to pass 法律s 演説(する)/住所ing sports concussions in children in 2009, 含むing by barring concussed players from returning to the same game. All 50 明言する/公表するs have now 可決する・採択するd such 法律s.
But the new 訴訟 主張するs 治める/統治するing 団体/死体s, like the IHSA, have had patchy 実施 of 明言する/公表する 委任統治(領)s.

Speaking Saturday, Siprut said the 合法的な 活動/戦闘 wasn't ーするつもりであるd to 土台を崩す America's most popular sport.
'This is not a 脅し or attack on football,' he said. 'Football is in danger in Illinois and other 明言する/公表するs ― 特に at the high school level ― because of how dangerous it is. If football does not change internally, it will die. The talent 井戸/弁護士席 will 乾燥した,日照りの up as parents keep kids out of the sport― and that's how a sport dies.'?
