Injury Report

First Aid

• Maroondah City Council provides first aid. They assess injuries courtside or access the first aid room if needed and administer ice, first aid or call an ambulance if required.
• If first aid is required, please notify the Maroondah Council Duty Manager (staff wear grey polo with green trim) who can be located at the front desk at Reception. If the staff member isn’t at the front desk use the phone and ring the Duty Manager mobile 0438 616 774 for assistance, this number is also printed on the phone at the front desk.
• It is important that only one person notifies court staff of the need for assistance, as multiple reports from multiple people to different staff may result in a delay in treatment due to confusion over where the injury is and how many people are injured.
• Ice can be obtained from the front desk at Reception via the Maroondah Council Duty Manager who will assess whether additional follow-up or first aid treatment is required.
  • For injuries deemed by coaches and/or guardians to not require first aid assistance:
    o Band-Aids – should be carried in a first aid kit by ALL coaches. Any requests for band-aids made to Competition office staff will be redirected back to coaches.
    o If a coach/team does not have access to band-aids, they will be able to purchase band-aids from the Cafe.
