All teams must carry with them a first aid bag complete with fresh water spray. The use of a bucket and/or sponge is banned under all, and any, circumstances, in line with F. A. rulings. The “first aid kit” must, at the very least, contain
(i) a Triangular Bandage
(ii) "safety" pins
(iii) medium dressings
(iv) large dressing
(v) individually wrapped antiseptic wipes
(vi) a spray container for fresh water.

Teams that disregard any part of the directive will be fined a maximum of £25.00 and persistent offences will be reported to council who may act as they see fit. This would include additional fines not to exceed £50 and club suspensions should the teams not comply with instructions.

Additional Information

It is also recommended that you carry scissors , eye wash and an eye pad, although these are not included in the directive. There is also a recommendation to carry gloves in the first aid kit. Teams will obviously discover other items that they wish to carry in their first aid kit that are not included in the "basic” directive. The league are sure teams will realise the importance of this directive. None of the items are particularly expensive but could save great discomfort . All of our league officials will be asked to carry out “on the spot checks”, so please don’t get caught out. You have been warned.
