The Injured Player: Emergencies in the game

The case where a player is injured on the field is the coaches, players and supporters nightmare. This occurs as an unplanned and unwanted event that nobody wishes to happen to them, or their teammates.

Considered the basics in sports medicine it is often necessary to go over these topics to reinforce these basics and review our current practices before and when we have to deal with these emergencies. Preperation for the events and the emergencies and assessment of the injured player is vital to ensuring that nothing is left to chance and the player can return to the game in the shortest time possible by enhancing their recovery chances if and when the injury occurs.

Planning for an emergency should be undertaken both prior to the season starting, and before the actual game takes place. Everyone with the team has a role and within that role is a responsibility to each other, the team, their teammates and to the game over all. Such planning needs to encompass all the “what ifs” that can occur and how to react to them.

Injuries within the game can range from a minor sore finger through to life
