Injury Management

All coaches and team managers should be aware of any players who suffer from Anaphylaxis, Asthma, Epilepsy, Diabetes and any other conditions which may require emergency treatment, and understand how to recognise the signs of a problem.

Parents are encouraged to inform coaches and Team Managers if their child has a medical condition, however, please remember that it is not mandatory for team officials to have first-aid training.

For any Coaches or Team Managers wanting to gain First-Aid knowledge or certification visit this website
