First Aid
In a thrilling sport such as trampolining, even with very safe and progressive coaching, simple accidents can occur. Sprains and scrapes are common as in any sport. Because of the height and forces involved in trampolining there is the potential for more significant injuries.
The club has a number of qualified first aiders or medically qualified coaches. Scotstoun LC also has nominated first aiders available on contacting reception. The club has a small First Aid box in the cupboard too. We record and report all significant accidents according to the SG and BG policies for this on our standard accident form, which is copied to the parents/individual concerned as well as to our governing body's welfare department.
