saw this and it seemed to go along with of the thread @Marine03 posted (before the massive derail) about youth football in the US.
Under 10s should be banned from heading footballs, former Wales striker Iwan Roberts has said.
A study by the University of Stirling suggested it caused instant, short term changes to the brain.
Mr Roberts said the Football Association of Wales (FAW) could be brave and make this "correct decision".
The FAW Trust, which looks after the grassroots game, said robust evidence of the effect on the brain would be needed for any ban.
Football's governing body in the United States has already stopped juniors from heading the ball and the idea is getting growing support here.
