At last someone raised this issue. As an athlete myself, I feel that there must be a code of conduct for every popular sports http://mostpopularsports.net. Then a research should be carried out on different incidents, which caused brain injuries in the last 10 years or so. The details should be gathered for all such incidents. And finally, a common policy for all sports should be devised and published to keep all athletes safe.
