Skill test - If the active and passive movements did not produce pain ask the player to stand and, if lower limbs are affected, see if player can weight-bear and if he/she can walk. If unable to do so, the player may be assisted from the field, otherwise the player should be carefully accompanied from the field for a full assessment or, if the injury is only slight, the player can be allowed to resume playing.
REMEMBER:
NEVER remove an injured player from the pitch to enable the game to continue.
NEVER lift or carry an injured player from the pitch if the player cannot move him or herself.
ALWAYS stop the game a serious injury is suspected.
 
Acute / Severe Injuries
In the event of a suspected acute or catastrophic injury, it is important that everyone - players, coaches, referees and administrators - knows what to do. This should be documented in the emergency plan as follows:
1. Call for help.
2. Call for an ambulance:
Act promptly and call immediately for professional medical help, including the defibrillator personnel on duty that day if needed – in the event of a suspected spinal or other serious injury, DO NOT MOVE THE PLAYER. Wait until a properly qualified person is able to supervise the procedure.
3. Speak to the player.
4. Check airway - remove mouth guard.
5. Check breathing.
6. Check circulation.
7. Do not move the player.
8. Stay with the player and continue communication.
9. Keep player warm until professional help arrives.
