Health and Safety
Your child's health and safety whilst taking part in La Manga Football Academy is of utmost importance to us. The following measures help ensure safety and fun for all who participate:
- A register is taken for every session to ensure numbers present
- First-aid kit on the playing fields at all times
- Telephone at the stadium with a direct link to the resort doctor and emergency services
- All attendees are screened for injuries and ailments (asthma, etc) prior to participation
- La Manga Club provides water (regular rehydration) and shade during coaching to combat heat-related conditions
- Sessions are run at the cooler times of day to combat heat-related conditions, with youngest groups (five to six years) during the coolest period
- In line with FA guidelines and recent research in sports science (dangers of repeatedly heading the ball), no heading drills are used for any age group
- A maximum of 16 children are signed up for any one session to ensure safety and quality coaching for all
