The research question for this final project is what duty do coaches owe to athletes to

prevent injuries? This an important topic because throughout the years we have heard about

lots of instances specifically at the high school level some coaches would ignore players who

say they are injured or have a concussion and would demand that they go back in the game,

but ultimately those players end up suffering further injury and making the injury worse than

what it already was.
