Were any tests done - CT, MRI, evaluations by a Neurologist, Physiatrist, practitioners interested in your health - not just interested in your return to play?
Who is/was responsible for this "brain training " regimen? - was it a responsible Physiatrist or the team trainer?/team 'doc'?
I'm sorry, but if you continued with headaches during the season, you should have been sidelined until their cause was thoroughly explored - minus 1 for your caregivers......there are too many reasons for that problem alone.
Do Not proceed with the Sport Doc under the auspices of any IMPACT guidelines, until you have had a thorough workup evaluatiing your injuries for completeness for concussion, PCS, and upper cervical injuries, if that has not been already done. Actually, IMPACT quidelines aren't worth much, anyway, with an injury that has continued to plague you this long.
Do yourself a favor and get a good workup, and take a break from contact sports until you get that.
Best Wishes.

Medication update: Topamax 200mg twice daily it seems to minimize daily headaches to a 1-2/10 quality(I still know they are there); and acute headaches erupt without warnings.
