Hi All,
In my game on Saturday the following happened, and I wanted opinion on whether I acted correctly.
Red Drop out restart after a score by Black
Kick goes very high, and players from Red are running to compete for ball with Black(recieving side).
As a red player goes to jump for the ball, he turns his ankle badly, and quite clearly to me.
It looked serious, so I immediately blew the whistle for safety and everyone stopped straight away.
The kick was still in the air, and nobody from either side touched it before it bounced and rolled into touch. All the players that were about to contest for the ball had stopped completely.
Before I tell you what I did, how and where should I have restarted play after the injury had been dealt with?
Thanks
James.
