Cardiac Risk in the Young

As a young player this might be of interest to you or to some of our EGRFC parents.....

They offer free cardiac screening for any 14-35 year olds who may participate in high intensity sport on a regular basis.

Testimonial from one of our Parents:

“ We have had Louie tested this summer and it essentially involves 10 minutes on an ECG machine followed by a quick chat with a present cardiologist to examine results etc. It’s completely free (they ask only for a donation) and they provide the screening service all around the country at various venues (all dates are on the website). A friend of mine is involved in the marketing of the charity and she is keen more people hear about the service they offer. The lad before Louie was tested and was informed he needed further testing and was referred to specialists so they obviously picked something up which might just save his life. “
