TY - JOUR PY - 1982// TI - Some risk factors in trampolining illustrated by six serious injuries JO - British journal of sports medicine A1 - Hammer, A. A1 - Schwartzbach, A. L. A1 - Paulev, P. E. SP - 27 EP - 32 VL - 16 IS - 1 N2 - Four case histories out of 75 significant trampoline injuries (from a total of 198 injuries re-examined) plus two recent accidents (1979) are presented, illustrating that the trampoline is posing an undue risk of serious injury. It is argued that the only single factor capable of preventing trampoline injuries is a trampoline ban. This is imperative in schools. Trampoline clubs are advised to reconsider the risk factors involved.
