Football Medic Saves the Day

The humble medic is often the forgotten cast member in the theatre of sport.

Some might think that being a medic at a football game is boring. Prolonged inactivity must surely dull one’s senses, making it hard to act decisively when the need arises. Others might claim that the football medic’s time would be better spent treating people with serious illnesses, rather than squirting ‘magic water’ on the occasional sprained knee.

This football medic would disagree. Watch how he uses his head and saves the day.
