B15U Rec. I had a player pushed/tripped and go down yesterday and bloody his nose. We stopped the bleeding and cleaned the floor. He couldn't sit because the only other player on the bench had already fouled out. After a bit of a delay we continued.
Side note - a parent (nurse) came up to my partner and I after the game and said she saw the injured player wipe his nose and then eventually touch the ball. She recommended in the future the player be made to go to the bathroom and wash and also replace the ball. In this situation, two excellent recommendations IMO which I will forward to our Board.
