Which Sports Injuries Can You Claim Compensation For?

When you think of personal injury compensation claims, you are likely to think of injuries sustained in car accidents or a slip on a wet floor. But did you know that you can claim compensation for some sports injuries? Claim-Easy’s expert panel of solicitors has extensive experience in handling compensation claims for various sports injuries. Claim-Easy.co.uk is full of accessible information on all sorts of claims and the Claim-Easy team is helpful, professional and straight-talking, making the compensation claim process “easy-peasy”.

Anyone that enjoys sports will know that injury is at times unavoidable, especially in contact sports such as football, rugby and hockey. However, many people do not realise that some sports injuries can be the basis of a compensation claim - to compensate for the pain of the injury itself as well as any medical costs, ongoing treatment and any time off work or loss of earnings incurred. Most sports involve an element of risk and each participant implicitly accepts this by taking part, however each participant also accepts a duty of care to the other players. Therefore, if you are injured as a result of a legal tackle, no matter how serious the injury, you are not eligible to claim compensation as there was no one to blame. But if you are injured in an illegal tackle, for instance in rugby or football, then you may be able to claim injury compensation from the competitor that tackled you illegally.

Compensation claims for sports injuries are also possible if the organiser or owner of the sports facilities was negligent in their duty of care. Perhaps you injured yourself working out on gym equipment which was old, broken or poorly maintained, or perhaps you fell while playing on poorly maintained courts or playing surfaces. You may even be able to claim for a sports injury if you were a spectator in the crowd and the public viewing areas were not made safe.

No matter where your sports injury occurred (at school, in a public sports area, in a gym or leisure centre, on council or private property), whether you were a competitor, referee, coach or spectator, or what the surrounding circumstances were, if the accident was not your fault then you may be able to claim for sports injury compensation.

For no-obligation, jargon-free advice on these and all sorts of claims, visit www.claim-easy.co.uk.
