Pursuing an injury compensation claim if the injury itself happened while taking part in sport is always difficult because the law says that an individual has accepted the risk that they might be injured. However, competitors in contact sports especially can be held liable for the way and spirit in which they play the game. Reckless or illegal tackles can cause very serious injuries and each player owes his peers a duty to take reasonable care. Where a tackle is not only outside the rules of the game, but is also recklessly and deliberately vicious, the perpetrator should expect to be sued.

A contact sport like football will always throw up injuries that are entirely accidental and although severe are unlikely to make a successful sports injury claim. One exception was Sparta Rotterdams Rachid Bouaouzan, who injured Niels Kokmeijer in his first season for Dutch club Go Ahead. Kokmeijer was forced to retire from professional football while Bouaouzan was suspended for the rest of the season and sentenced to a conditional five months in jail. Given the level of training and physical fitness among professional football players, such horrific injuries are thankfully rare. No win no fee compensation claims are unusual among players in the premier league and the lower professional divisions.

Its far more likely that the services of specialist firms like No Win No Fee.com will be called upon when the players are part time or playing in Sunday leagues. Levels of fitness here often fall below levels of commitment, aggression, skill and enthusiasm! In one recent case a player in the Birkenhead Sunday League was hurt when an illegal high challenge fractured his leg in two places and was so bad it even splintered his shin pad! His injuries were so serious that he was off work for a year and a half following the game. His claim for damages against the offending players insurers went all the way to trial with the judge at Liverpool County Court ruling that the challenge was not only far beyond the laws of the game, it was also beyond that which is permissible.
