What Causes Dizziness Accompanied By Headaches?

My son is 14 years old and has had at least 3 separate instances of dizziness accompanied by headache. He has had no impact or concussion to cause this. He is active in sports but I don t know if he is finally hitting puberty and that is causing this or what it could possibly be. Stress?
