Managing Sports Injuries:

Resources of Interest:

All Players and Parents Should Be Familiar with the RICER & NO HARM Principle to be followed as soon as any player sustains an Injury.

RICER: Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation, Referral (if required)

  • Ice for MAXIMUM 20min at a time every 2 hours for the first 72 hours.
  • If there is No Improvement in the first 72 hours, get a medical assessment.

NO HARM: heat, alcohol, running, massage

  • the above will increase blood flow to the injured site, and slow down recovery
  • we need to get the heat out of the injured site
    • use the back of your hand to feel the injured site for heat, continue icing until it feels normal
