Baseball and Softball Injury Manual

This Safety Manual was first published by Little League Baseball in 1989. It is no longer published or available.

The objectives of the manual are:

Make the user familiar with basic sports injury terminology,
Make the user aware of up-to-date techniques for preventing sports injuries,
Help the user differentiate among mild, moderate and severe injuries,
Help the user know the appropriate first aid techniques for the injuries encountered on the field,
Help the user design an emergency plan for the team or league to use when severe injuries occur,
Help the user determine whether an injured player is ready to practice and play again.

Be aware that the manual does NOT teach the user to become a trained medical person, only to recognize injuries and administer basic first aid to mild injuries and know when expert help is needed for the more severe injuries.
