FA coaching guidelines will restrict heading by under-18s in training
The FA is set to launch new coaching guidelines that will restrict the amount of heading by under-18 players in training.
The new guidelines, first reported in the Times, have yet to be finalised but will not entirely ban heading.
Last month, BBC Scotland revealed the Scottish FA was set to ban under-12s heading the ball in training.
A study in October found the first links between playing professionally and dying from dementia.
The study, by Glasgow University and commissioned by the FA and the Professional Footballers' Association (PFA), found former professional footballers were three and a half times more likely to die of degenerative brain disease than people of the same age range in the general population.
