The FA has partnered with Liverpool John Moore's University to evaluate the implementation of the Youth Football Heading Guidance which was circulated last year.

Researchers in Sport and Exercise Science at Liverpool John Moores University are currently undertaking a survey on The FA’s heading guidelines in youth football (close date: 4th April, 23:59).

This survey intends to ask team representatives about their awareness of, adherence to, and views on, the most recent heading guidelines that were introduced by the Football Association. The survey will take approximately 30 minutes to complete.
