And you're wrong about the concussion thing... nothing in the rulebook says if a player has a concussion he/she can't return without authorization by a DO or MD. That's only if a player becomes unconscious during the ball game.

Proper Procedures for Handling Apparent Concussions
ACTION PLAN
If you suspect that a player has a concussion, you should take the following steps:
1. Remove athlete from play.
2. Ensure athlete is evaluated by an appropriate health care professional. Do not try to judge the seriousness of the injury yourself.
3. Inform athlete's parents or guardians about the known or possible concussion and give them the fact sheet on concussion.
4. Allow the athlete to return to play only with permission from an appropriate health care professional.
