Proceedings From the Ice Hockey Summit on Concussion: A Call to Action
2011, PM and RCitation Excerpt :Although quality guidelines for sport-related concussion management have been written [5-7], there are unique features that distinguish ice hockey from other contact sports. Professional hockey is a skilled, exciting game, rooted in a heavily reinforced culture of aggressive play [14-22], and it is the only professional sport, other than boxing and mixed martial arts, that “tolerates” fighting during play. To eliminate behaviors or major penalties that increase the risk of concussive brain injury and related neurotrauma (ie, head hits, blindside hits, fighting, and checking from behind), consistent educational messages must be delivered, compliance with rules must be rewarded, and infractions must be penalized across all levels of participation [23-27].

Of the 18 included studies, 13 assessed the effectiveness of changes in mandatory league rules,19–31 3 assessed the effectiveness of educational interventions,32–34 and 2 assessed the effectiveness of psychosocial interventions.35,36 Thirteen of the studies included youth players in minor leagues.
Risk of injury associated with bodychecking experience among youth hockey players
2011, CMAJ. Canadian Medical Association JournalCitation Excerpt :Although there was an emphasis on fair play in Alberta, there was no official reward system. However, a study of the effect of a fair-play reward system showed that rates of injury and the observed number of penalties did not differ between a Bantam league that rewarded teams through a fair-play point system for low penalty minutes and a Bantam league with no reward system.27 In addition, in our previous study involving Pee Wee hockey players (ages 11–12), where a fair-play reward system was in place in Edmonton but not in Calgary, the rates of injury between the two cities did not differ.9
