Pitchside medical cover for sports matches and events

Planning cover before the game

Start with the venue, fixture date, arrival time and expected finish. Include the sport, level of competition, number of participants and the responsibilities you expect the professional to take on. Clear details help a professional decide whether the role fits their experience and availability.

Pitchside medics, physiotherapists and first aiders have different scopes of practice. A job title or course certificate alone does not establish suitability for every fixture. The organiser remains responsible for its event plan and the requirements of its sport or governing body.

How PitchMedic checks suitability

PitchMedic reviews identity, right to work, insurance, professional registration or membership where required, and relevant qualifications. We check the course, level, expiry date and experience needed for the role before someone can be offered that role.

Creating an account or registering interest does not mean a professional is approved. Availability is confirmed through the booking journey, rather than assumed from a profile or enquiry.

From fixture details to a confirmed booking

Create an organiser account and describe your fixture. Review suitable professionals when booking access is confirmed, then follow the booking and attendance status in your dashboard. Include travel and meeting arrangements so expectations are clear before matchday.

PitchMedic is a booking platform, not an emergency service or an ambulance provider. Do not rely on an unconfirmed booking as event cover. Use the support route for questions about beta access or your fixture.
