- TAPING, MFRThe event was educational. We got to observe and understand the biomechanics behind fencing and mechanism of injury during the game. We also saw the difference between the game strategies of men and women. This event helped us to enhance our skills and knowledge.
We met coaches and athletes of the different team and discussed about the problems they were facing during the sport or in any other activity. We also discussed with coaches about how we can take preventive measures to reduce the risk of any injuries in their athletes.
It was a new opportunity to explore the game, their rules and regulations and also got to know about the experiences of the people who are involved in the whole event.
It was privileged to be part of the asia rugby u18 boys and girls held in kathmandu, nepal. As a field sports physiotherapist working with elite athletes at an international level, the bulk of a day is spent in the field assessing athlete injuries, treating them, and helping them with injury prevention by taping and wrapping.
As rugby is a high-contact game, there were a lot of concussed cases, and assessing the major injuries is challenging but it became easy with the pre-course done from world rugby.
I was not only the team physio for nepal, but i was also a part of the organizing medical committee so being an icir level 2 medic working with a team of 15 red cross volunteers and 3 match day doctors, there i get an experience to develop my leadership quality also.
