FIRST AID

Sports are a big part of many


people’s lives – and unfortunately,
accidents and injuries are a common
part of many sports matches or
physical activities. No matter how
many preventative strategies we put
in place, one wrong step or
movement on the field can result in
sudden and painful injury.
The risk of getting hurt or becoming
unwell is an everyday reality for
athletes. There is the risk of extreme
physical activity, the strong
physiological stress, and the
possibility of falls and other sports-
related injuries. That is why it is
important to have a basic skill in
giving first aid to stop minor injuries
from getting worse.
