On the field
- If there is a suspected injury on the field, anyone may call a hold to stop all fighting in the area and determine the proper course of action.
- A marshal should call for assistance if they suspect that someone is experiencing more than momentary distress. It is an extremely serious matter to delay first aid when it is needed, and marshals who ignore injuries may have their ability to supervise combat suspended.
- In the event of an emergency, everyone must cooperate with any authorised persons responding to the emergency and keep the area clear of spectators.
- Do not enter the field to assist until given the go-ahead by a marshal, once combat has stopped.
Treatment
- If the injured person is conscious, they must be asked if they would like assistance. You cannot force a conscious person to accept treatment without their consent.
Return to the field
- If the injury involves a suspected concussion, the patient must leave the field and cannot participate in combat until they have been cleared of potential concussion. The patient should be assessed against Concussion in Sport Group's Concussion Recognition Tool, and referred to a healthcare professional as appropriate.
- If the injury involves free flowing blood, the patient must leave the field immediately and may not return until the flow of blood has stopped.
Reporting
- Serious injuries must be reported to the Kingdom Youth Armoured Combat Marshal and the Earl Marshal within 24 hours of the incident and reported to the Society Youth Combat Marshal within 48 hours. Include all available details in the report. Serious injuries include:
