Introduction A major characteristic of Rugby Union is frequent bodily collisions between two or more players. These physical collisions are generally referred to as the tackle (Hendricks & Lambert, 2010; Gabbett & Ryan, 2009; Gabbett & Kelly, 2007).The tackle contest can be identified when an opposing player, not in possession of the ball (tackler), contacts a player in possession of the ball (ball-carrier) in an attempt to prevent further progression of the ball towards the tackler’s try-line. The tackle places a range of physiological, and to an extent, psychological demands on players (Takarada, 2003; Deutsch, Kearney, & Rehrer, 2007; Passos et al., 2009; Passos et al., 2008; Brault, Bideau, Craig, & Kulpa, 2010; Passos, Araujo, Davids, & Shuttleworth, 2011). Players’ are expected to meet these demands on average about 10 to 25 times per a match depending on playing position (Deutsch et al., 2007; Quarrie & Hopkins, 2008).

  • The Unintended Consequences of Protective Equipment in Gridiron Football Compared to Rugby Union
    Gladiator Gear: The unintended consequences of protective equipment in gridiron football compared to rugby union Cullum Brownbridge, BSc Applied Health Sciences (Sport Management) Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Faculty of Applied Health Sciences, Brock University St. Catharines, Ontario © 2020 Abstract: Sports equipment has evolved over time to both enhance performance and reduce the injury risk. Protective equipment is particularly important in contact sports where injuries are frequent. In American and Canadian football, helmets and shoulder pads are two pieces of protective equipment that are strictly implemented to absorb hits of massive force to reduce the risk of head and upper body injuries respectively. While the risk of injury is reduced, the athlete's calculated perspective of risk might be altered. This change in risk equilibrium has the potential unintended consequence of the individual foregoing caution and playing in a faster and more aggressive style. This altered behavior not only increases the individual's own injury risk, but also puts other athletes who are on the receiving end of contact at greater risk. This displacement of risk is particularly dangerous when an athlete is hit in an area that is unprotected and vulnerable, or in an area where the equipment is not as effective as perceived. Drawing on existing research, theories of risk in sport, and qualitative interviews with 11 male, adult athletes who have competed in both football with significant protective equipment and rugby with minimal protective equipment, this study examines the relationships and potential disjuncture between sports equipment changes, athlete perceptions of injury risks, and actual injury risks.

Rugby League is a sport which can develop capacities for exemplary physical fitness, skill and courage. However, the cost of injuries suffered whilst playing Rugby League is of major concern to the players, to their coaches, and to the greater community as a whole, both in terms of the medical expenses involved in treating the injuries and in the loss of productive time and capacity due to injuries.
