 Strain
A strain is a twist, pull or tear of a
muscle or tendon, a cord of tissue
connecting muscle to bone. It is an
acute, non-contact injury that results
from over stretching or over
contraction.
Symptoms of a strain include pain,
muscle spasm, and loss of strength.
Severe strains not treated can cause
damage and loss of function.
Types of Officiating
1. Outside Officiating requires
external officials, usually hired,
or volunteers asssigned by the
organizers to implement rules
and code of conduct of the game

 Dislocation

When, the joint is described as being dislocated.

High impact sports cause the majority of
dislocations.
Pain and tenderness at the site of the injury are
most common symptoms along with the inability to
move the joint through it’s normal range of motion.
A dislocation is an emergency situation that
requires immediate medical treatment.
 Concussion
Concussions are caused by a blow
to the head; this injury causes
some level of impairment of brain
functions.
Symptoms of a concussion may
include confusion, short term
memory problems, and loss of
consciousness.
Medical advice should be sought
 What’s the difference between
acute and chronic injuries?
Acute injuries occur suddenly. For
example: a sprained ankle, strained back
or fractured hand.
Symptoms include
– Sudden severe pain
– Swelling
– Inability to place weight on a lower limb
– Extreme tenderness in an upper limb
– Inability to move a joint through it’s full range
of motion
– Extreme limb weakness
– Visible dislocation or break of a bone
 What’s the difference between
acute and chronic injuries?
Chronic injuries usually result from
overusing one area of the body while
playing a sport or exercising over a
long period.
Signs of a chronic injury:
– Pain when performing an activity
– A dull ache when at rest
– Swelling
 The body’s healing process:
From the moment of injury, your body
goes to work to repair the damage.
At the moment of injury, chemicals
are released from damaged cells,
triggering a process called
inflammation. Blood
vessels at the injury site
become dilated, blood
flow increases to carry
nutrients to the site of
tissue damage.
 The body’s healing process:
Within hours of injury, white blood
cells travel to the injury site to tear
down and remove damaged tissue,
allowing other specialized cells to
start developing scar tissue.
Within days of injury, scar tissue
forms on the skin inside the body.
The damaged area will increase in
strength as scar tissue continues to
form.
 The body’s healing process:
Within a month of injury, scar tissue
may start to shrink, bringing damaged
torn or separated tissues back
together. However it may be several
months before the injury is completely
healed.
 RICER
To care for an injury, use RICER:
– Rest (don’t put weight on the injured limb)

– Ice (15 minutes on, 15 minutes off)

– Compression (to push out swelling)

– Elevation (raising the injured limb

higher than your heart)

– Referral (see a qualified professional to

assess the injury)
 HARM

Avoid these HARM-ful factors for 72

hours after the injury:
Heat – increases bleeding
Alcohol – delays healing, masks pain
and severity of the injury
Running – causes further damage
Massage – increases bleeding and
swelling
Manage an injury with
TOTAPS
 Talk
Ask the player what
happened.

“Where does it
hurt?”

“What kind of pain is

it?”
 Observe
Look at the affected area for redness and
swelling.

Is the injured side different from the other

side?
 Touch
Touch will indicate warmth for
inflammation.

Touch also assesses pain.

 Active Movement
Ask the injured player to move the
injured part without any help
 Passive Movement
If the player can move the injured
part, carefully try to move it yourself
through it’s full range of motion.

Do not continue if extreme pain is

experienced with this movement.
 Skill Test
Did the active and passive movement
produce pain?

If no, can the player stand and

demonstrate some of the skills of the
game carefully?

If an injury is identified, remove the

player from the activity immediately.
 How can injury be prevented?
Sports injuries can be prevented
by looking at the following 3
categories:
1. The environment of a particular
sport
2. Fitness levels
3. Protective wear
 What’s in the news?
Concussions
CTE - Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy
is a disease of the brain believed to be
caused by repeated head trauma resulting
in large accumulations of tau proteins,
killing cells in regions responsible for
mood, emotions, and executive
functioning.
