The Mt Lofty District Football Club is pleased to announce our association with Your Brain Health for season 2024.
Your Brain Health is a network of clinicians dedicated to improving brain health through advanced education, clinical support and baseline screening. They are currently working globally to assist sporting clubs, schools and other at-risk populations.
Their current clients include teams competing in the AFL, SANFL, NRL, English Premier League Football, Professional Rugby, Formula 1, International Cycling, combat sports and horse racing. As well as many amateur sporting clubs and schools.
Concussion management is a major focus for the Mt Lofty District Football Club, therefore we wanted to offer another layer of support for players to make informed decisions in relation to concussion.
YBH will be offering brain health baseline screenings, which is a reference point for future concussions or head knocks. The objective data obtained in these screens provides very important information for medical professionals post-concussion to inform their decision-making about rehabilitation and return to play. This decreases the long-term risk associated with concussion if we can ensure players are fully recovered before being exposed to the risk of playing again.
Your Brain Health will be attending Heathfield Oval to conduct the tests 4:30-7:30 on Thursday 11th and Tuesday 16th of April 2024.
What is included in the baseline screen?
Why Baseline screen?
Your Brain Health continues to work within the guidelines of sporting codes and the Australian Institute of Sport. We work with your team or personal doctor to assist them with better information to ultimately make better decisions.
The cost of the baseline screen is $65 and Your Brain Health will be returning 20% of all screens to the club in the form of sponsorship.
All information collected is deidentified and stored securely through AWS, meeting the highest data security standards.
Prior to attending these clinics please prepare the baseline consent form attached.

Join us at Heathfield Oval on Monday 5th February for an important concussion session with Liz Jemson-Ledger.
All players, parents, coaches, team managers and community members are welcome.
Liz Jemson-Ledger is a Titled Neurological Physiotherapist and the Clinical Lead Physiotherapist at Advanced Neuro Rehab. After working in brain injury rehabilitation, Liz has since been involved in concussion research and the design and implementation of baseline concussion testing protocols. She also specialises in the management of concussion in the acute stages as well as the persistent window.
The concussion information evening will briefly cover what concussions are and what to look for as well as discuss recent changes to concussion guidelines to ensure our club is up to date with the latest policies and procedures.
Education around concussion isn’t designed to deter individuals away from contact sports such as football, it’s designed to ensure players can make informed decisions and can get the best care to ensure optimal outcomes. Aside from brain health, concussion recovery is also important to minimise risk of secondary injuries and to ensure players return to optimal performance.
The evening will be designed to answer any questions you have, so please feel free to send through questions in advance so we can be sure to cover them within the presentation. Email questions to: headtrainer@mtloftydevils.com.au
