As in most recreational sport, participants may be injured. This section covers the most

common accidents. Responsibilities of the supervisors and jumpers in accident prevention are

also outlined.

The following are reason why accidents happen:

z Attempting somersaults. Landing on the head or neck can cause serious injury

paralysis,

Or death, even when landing in the middle of the bed.

z More that one person on the trampoline. Use by more than one person at the same

time can be result in serious injuries.

z Incorrect mounting and dismounting. Carefully crawl out of and into the trampoline

bed. Do not jump off to the ground. Do not jump from a roof, or other object onto the

trampoline. Small children may need assistance to get on or off the trampoline. Do not

step onto the suspension system.

z Hitting the frame. Stay in the center of the trampoline when jumping. Injury may result

from hitting the frame when control is lost. Be sure the frame cover is always on and the

pads securely fastened. Do not jump directly onto the frame pad.

z Loss of control. A jumper who looses control will increase his/her chance of injury. Be

sure to familiarize yourself with the basic jumps before doing more difficult ones. Jumps

should be mastered, performed repeatedly before moving on to the next level. To regain

control and stop your jump, bend your knees sharply as you land.

z Alcohol and drug use. Because alcohol and drug use impairs the jumpers’ coordination,

loss of control as well as injuries are greatly increased.

z Foreign objects. Please make sure there is nothing sharp under and around the

trampoline. Hitting objects under the trampoline can cause injury. Jumping with a foreign

object can also increase the chances of getting injured. Be sure there is adequate

clearance 24 feet above and 10feet around the trampoline. Be careful of overhead wires,

tree limbs etc.

z Bad Weather. Do not use your trampoline in gusty winds or inclement weather. The bed

should not be wet.

z Poor maintenance of the trampoline. Make sure you inspect the trampoline before

every use. Check for punctures on the bed, sharp burrs on the frames, stitching that has
