The Friday night lights are expected to shine bright again tonight, and if you have younger children, you might be heading off to weekend baseball and soccer games.

With more kids playing, it's no surprise there are more injuries. A report from Stanford University Health shows that, of the 30 million kids participating in sports, 3.5 million of them under the age of 14 are hurt annually.

Concussions make up 27% of those injuries.
