Sports Injury

If you have been suffering from a personal injury that has been caused by an accident whilst you have been playing or watching sport then our specialist personal injury lawyers may be able to help you.

As you are more than likely aware physical sports always come with definite level of risk and some of the injuries that you suffer from occur due to the fact they aren’t preventable but if you suffer from a sports related injury that is not part of normal play then you may be able to claim for damages. Some examples of the situations in which accidents should be avoided are as follows:

• A dangerous defect present on a pitch, court, equipment or other sporting facility
• If a referee did not fulfil their duty to make all reasonable efforts to prevent unnecessary risks
• Inadequate supervision or training where it would normally be required
• Incorrect instructions from a formal instructor or trainer
• Reckless or dangerous conduct by players
• Unsafe or poorly maintained equipment and facilities

Anyone who is involved in a sporting accident due to aspects such as the ones named above can make a claim for compensation. This basically means that it doesn’t matter if you are a professional sports player, semi-professional, amateur or you just play it on a recreational level; all of you are entitled to make a claim for compensation if you have suffered a sports injury that should have been avoided. The one thing that you do need to make sure of though it that you need to prove someone was at fault for your injury due to a breach of care.
