CA AB2127

Prohibits high school and middle school football teams from conducting more than 2 full-contact practices per week during preseason and regular season, with full-contact portions limited to 90 minutes per day.

Completely bans full-contact football practices during the off-season, defined as the period from the end of regular season until 30 days before the next regular season begins.

Requires athletes suspected of concussion or head injury to be immediately removed from play and prohibits return until evaluated by a licensed health care provider trained in concussion management and given written clearance.

Mandates a minimum 7-day graduated return-to-play protocol supervised by a licensed health care provider if a concussion or head injury is confirmed.

Urges the California Interscholastic Federation to develop rules implementing these provisions and allows schools and leagues to adopt even stricter safety standards than those required by the bill.
