In football, make sure to NOT lead with your head. Not only is it dangerous, but it is illegal. Keeping your mouthpeice in, your eye on the tackle, and initiating the contact will all help ensure that you do not get a concussion.

Strengthen your neck. Keep your head on a swivel, keep your head up, don't let your head drop while blocking or tackiling and never lead with your head.

Artificial turf is causing a large amount of injuries.

you can purchase a neck roll that will limit your forward motion of your head and reduce the risk of injury
