Planning & Preparation

1. Each team has a qualified first aider. All Managers and coaches must ensure they have an up to date certificate or recognised qualification.

2. Each team has an up to date first aid kit that is kept fully stocked, the kit must be available at training and games

3. There must always be two adults present with a mobile phone at training sessions and games.

4. The pitch should always be inspected before training or a game commences for any sharp objects/broken glass or anything else that could cause injury.

5. Be familiar with your surroundings; know the full address where you are playing including the post code. Ensure access to the pitch is available for an ambulance, i.e. bollards/barriers are not padlocked. Know who to contact at the ground if an emergency arises.

6. Know where the nearest hospital to the ground you are playing at is.

7. If you have to treat a player for an injury that requires hospital treatment then keep a note of the details, time, and what happened for future reference. You can download an injury report form from our website and keep it in your first aid kit.

8. Limit your first aid treatment and /or advice to the knowledge and practise in which you are formally trained. Carry and use only medical items that you have been trained to use.

9. Protect yourself, others and the casualty. The golden rule is “first do no harm “,do what is necessary to prevent deterioration of the player whilst awaiting the arrival of emergency services.
