TRAMPOLINE SAFETY
"Muuum...stop worrying!"
It’s the anthem of frustrated
children everywhere.
In the case of trampolining,
some of your concerns can be easily put to
rest.
Given the right trampoline,
not only is the safety of your budding bouncer
ensured, the fun and memories they create
will be priceless.
A risky business?
Although trampolining may seem dangerous,
in reality the risks are relatively low. In
fact, the lead therapist of the British Trampolining
Federation says trampolining is “one
of the safer performance sports.”
Robert Brayden (Associate Professor
of Pediatrics) tells us that the most serious
injuries occur when children or amateurs attempt
to do flips and land on their head or neck.
However, the most common injuries are relatively
minor, resulting from a poorly executed move
or landing badly.
