Sports First Aid

Course Overview

Sport produces its own pattern of injuries and emergencies — impacts, sprains, fractures, concussion and cardiac events during exertion. Our Sports First Aid course is specifically designed for coaches, trainers and individuals involved in organised sports.

Delivered over two days at your club, facility or workplace, the course combines core first aid skills with sport-specific scenarios so your team can manage incidents confidently — on the pitch, court or poolside.
