  • Inadequate training or supervision
  • Sprains, strains, dislocation, bruising or broken bones

Contact sports, such as football and rugby, can produce more traumatic injuries due to the dynamic collision nature of the sport. However, overuse injuries are also very common in sports such as running, climbing or cycling. Repetitive strain injury (RSI) is caused by repeated movements which damaging tendons, nerves, muscles and other soft body tissues and can affect sportsmen and women. Tennis elbow is a common repetitive strain injury which occurs at the elbow and is mostly associated with playing tennis and other racquet sports.

In agreeing to play a sport it is generally considered that you have consented to the risk of injury, however, if an injury occurs from abnormal play or a third party incident you might be able to claim compensation.

* There are some exceptions to the 3 year rule. In the case of a child, a claim can be made any time up until the child reaches the age of 21. There are very few other exceptions.
