FA set to impose limits on young players

All Sport

The Football Association is expected to limit how often young players can head the ball in training.

According to The Times new coaching guidelines are expected to recommend a reduction in the amount of times young players head the ball.

It's in response to research last year that found professional footballers were three and a half times more likely to die of degenerative brain disease than the average person.

The guidelines are being finalised but are expected to cover players under the age of 18.
