Call us at (807) 768-1429 Notice: Rowan's Law: Concussion Awareness Rowan's Law is just one of the any ways in which the provincial government is committed to making sports safer in Ontario. Rowan's Law was named for Rowan Stringer, a high school rugby player from Ottawa, who died in the spring of 2013 from a condition known as second impact syndrome (swelling of the brain caused by a subsequent injury that incurred before a previous injury healed). Rowan is believed to have experienced three concussions over six days while playing rugby. She had a concussion but didn't know her brain needed time to heal. Neither did her parents, teachers or coaches.
All athletes under 26 years of age, parents of athletes under 18, coaches and officials must confirm every year that they have reviewed Rowan's Law: Concussion Awareness Resources.
