Is this targeting at the high school level? In this segment, we break down a player-safety play involving forcible contact to the head and neck area and discuss why high school targeting rules must be judged differently than what officials may see on Saturdays or Sundays.The conversation focuses on strike zone, forcible contact, illegal helmet contact, spearing, and why “code creep” from college or NFL rules can create confusion for high school officials.We also cover: Targeting against a runner  Lowering the strike zone  Player safety philosophy  When crew members should offer help  Why officials need rule-based judgment, not personal preference  How to defend or explain tough safety fouls on film A strong segment for high school football officials who want to sharpen their understanding of targeting, improve safety-foul judgment, avoid code creep… and much more.

Guest: Thomas S. Bottiglieri, D.O. On this episode of Advances in Care, host Erin Welsh sits down with Dr. Thomas Bottiglieri, Chief of the Primary Care Sports Medicine Division at NewYork-Presbyterian and Columbia, to discuss the evolving landscape of concussion care—from prevalence to emerging diagnostic breakthroughs. With over 2 million estimated concussions occurring annually in the United States and many of them affecting young athletes, Dr. Bottiglieri and his colleagues have sought to develop a more accurate and accessible way to objectively diagnose concussion. While a single injury may not cause long-term issues, research shows that repeated head trauma—and lack of proper care—can lead to premature neurodegeneration. During their research to improve diagnostic measures, Dr. Bottiglieri and his team discovered a biomarker associated with severe concussions: a subtle tremor of the head and neck that becomes amplified when a concussed patient tries to visually focus on a target. This discovery led to the development of ProScope, an innovative eye-tracking software tool that measures head and neck stability and can detect the diagnostic biomarker with over 80% sensitivity. With the advent of these tools, clinicians can now, for the first time, objectively measure concussion. A former competitive athlete himself, Dr. Bottiglieri hopes that the ProScope tool …

At the GM Meetings in Florida, Department of Player Safety was under the microscope following Radko Gudas’s 5-game suspension for the hit that ended Auston Matthews’ season, with many feeling the punishment was too light; George Parros suggested the door is open to changes, including potential third-party input. Ray feels suspensions are largely too lenient and called for a clearer, streamlined rulebook. Meanwhile, Doug Armstrong is stepping down as Team Canada’s Olympic GM - impacting future events like the World Cup - who would a worthy successor be? The NHL also confirmed a 2028 World Cup of Hockey featuring Calgary, Edmonton, and Prague as host cities (notably without a U.S. location), though questions remain about fitting the tournament into an already expanding 84-game schedule. On the safety front, mandatory neck guards for new players will begin next season, with logistics around enforcement still being sorted and roughly 40 approved models available. Finally, Islanders rookie Matthew Schaefer is rumoured to have as many as 1,000 friends and family in attendance for his hometown game in Toronto, capping off a standout season as the 18-year old continues to make waves league-wide.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
