The Indiana House passed a bill today requiring concussion-awareness training for youth and high school football coaches and a 24-hour waiting period for players who suffer concussions.
If the bill becomes law, Indiana would become the first state in the nation to require such training.
The House passed the measure 95-3. It’s one of dozens the House is considering amid today’s deadline for approving Senate bills.
