Trauma: It is likely that you are fine. It is not good that your parents will not take you to the doctor if you have had trauma to your head and you are concerned about it. But, if your pupils are reacting well to light (constricting when there is light applied to the eye), you are likely fine and just have a mild head injury. If your head is very painful, you should call someone to take you to the doc

If feel fine OK: I'm sorry your parents won't take you to the doctor if you are concerned but I guess they don't think it's needed. Hitting your head hard can cause a concussion, in which case you might have a headache & feel dizzy, dazed & confused. If you feel fine you did not have a concussion so you should be fine to play soccer. But avoid headers (hitting the ball with your head) which can cause concussions.

It depends on: how hard you hit your head and if there were any symptoms or signs of a concussion- loss of consciousness, cloudy thinking, dizziness,nausea or vomiting,unsteadiness with walking etc. If you did not have any of these and feel fine, then it's probably ok to play. If you have any of the above or develop any symptoms, you should not play as more serious brain injury may occur with another hit to head
