Following on from the Regulation 9 changes announced last week, the Community Rugby Pitch-side First Aid and Immediate Care Provision Guidelines supporting this regulation for the 21-22 season is now available.
The document below provides guidance and information for clubs and other rugby activity organisers on the recommended pitch-side provision for first aid/immediate care provision for training and matches. This covers the different levels and age-groups in the community game and includes information on medical emergency action plans, facilities, equipment and reporting.
On Wednesday 30 June we will be hosting a webinar to go through the new First Aid/Immediate Care Provision guidelines for the 2021-22 season and to cover other areas within FA/IC provision, including the first aid risk assessment, facilities and equipment and first aid training. Register
A new look RugbySafe toolkit will provide more information on player welfare responsibilities and good practice in clubs, and will be available in the coming weeks.
