Concussion Awareness - The Connor Crisp Story
Submitted By Shannon Gardiner on Friday, January 18, 2019
Just a couple of decades ago, it was considered normal to "have your bell rung".  We are now painfully aware that brain injuries (even minor ones) can have lasting effects.

Connor Crisp is a close friend of the Bradford Bulldogs who had his career (and his NHL dream) cut short as a result of long-term concussion symptoms.  Connor's story is motivation for our trainers, coaches, parents and program administrators to drive concussion awareness at all levels of hockey.
