Trampoline Safety
"Muuum...stop worrying!"
Its 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.
