21.01.2020 – Poolside support during ladies friendly waterpolo game

Date: 21.01.2020

Duration: 2000-2200

Venue: Marjon Swimming Pool

Reflective Summary:

I applied EAB tape to the wrist of one of the Marjon water polo team members.  She has had surgery on her right wrist and the tape was applied to provide support and protect her wrist during the match.

The game was very exciting but there were no injuries during the game.  One team member mentioned that she had shin splints which were sore.  I advised her to apply an ice pack to the area for 15 minutes before going to bed and to apply ice 3 times daily until the pain eased.  K-tape could also be applied to ease the pain. She was going to arrange an appointment with the masters sports rehab student who was on duty with me.

Areas for further improvement plus action plan
