The only 'doctor' who would sign a note to let a kid play after losing consciousness would be a quack. Sometimes it's necessary to consult a higher authority.

I think you need to read my post above...it happens, and there really isn't anything we can do to stop it.

I appreciate your earlier post.
I want to encourage you to not permit a player who has been unconscious to participate. You might have to stick your neck out and say you're not convinced it's safe. Then the coach points to the rule. Then you say, coach, I'm not convinced it's safe. Better some jib flapping than the kid dies in his sleep that night.
If you personally ever have a child in that situation, I would encourage you to watch the child while he or she is sleeping at least through the first night - and, if you want to err on the side of caution, for several nights.
No doctor in his right mind would sign a note to let a child participate under the conditions you describe.
