Sports Events
There are so many sports nowadays, some more physically demanding than others. These might include, Cycling, Football, Motorsport, Swimming, Horse Racing and a whole load more. In fact, the UK is home to thousands of sporting events every year from small-scale Sunday league football, to larger, more demanding events like the Wimbledon tennis tournament.

Every event poses their own, unique medical risks, which is why a considerable amount of time is spent by event organisers to ensure the safety and wellbeing of each participant and any spectators is well thought about. However, as much as you try to minimise the risk of injury within your sporting event, the possibility can never be eliminated. This is because a variety of medical issues can occur such as minor cuts and bruises, sprains, strains and fracture, leading through to more serious injuries like head injuries, cardiac arrest and many more.
