Sports First Aid PowerPoint

Assignment Instructions

In Chapter 2 facilities and equipment are discussed. Injuries often occur because of poor facilities and faulty equipment. These types of injuries can easily be prevented. In this activity you will consider issues regarding hazards common to facilities and equipment used in a sport you would like to coach. For this assignment, you will develop a power point that describes a sport of your choosing, the type of facility and equipment used, and at least 2 injuries that are directly related to hazardous conditions, poorly maintained facilities, or damaged equipment. You must clearly link facility/equipment hazards to specific injuries common to participation in that sport. Lastly, describe how you would address these issues (hazards) as a coach to prevent these injuries. The injuries and prevention strategies must clearly relate to the hazards chosen. Your PPT should also include a minimum of 3 graphics. I will be looking for the correct use of anatomical terms, a detailed look at potential hazards in the area, and your method of preventing injuries due to poor facilities or equipment.
