Regina Minor Football Medical Staff (EMTs/First Responders)

Football is a contact sport and injuries do occur. The safety of all players is the number one concern of Regina Minor Football.

Regina Minor Football provides an EMT/First Responder at all league Regina games. The medical staff are provided with a first aid box at the games.

The duties of the EMT/First Responder are to:

    Respond to all field injuries when the referee motions the coach onto the field when a player is down.

    Assess the nature and extent of the injury.

    Provide field level basic first aid.

    Advise the coach if further medical assessment or treatment is required beyond basic first aid.
        An ambulance is called when the injuries are assessed as requiring constant medical monitoring en route to the Emergency Department. The parent is responsible for the ambulance cost.

        If transportation is by car and the parent/responsible adult is not at the game the coach arranges transportation.
