Heads Up Football was the previous USA Football organizational membership program designed to create a better, safer game. Key components of this program include the only nationally accredited football-specific certification course, concussion recognition and response, head preparedness and hydration, sudden cardiac arrest, equipment fitting, Heads Up Tackling, and Heads Up Blocking.
