To reduce the severity of physical contact sports injuries, athletes should adhere to several preventative measures. These include warming up and stretching prior to playing, wearing appropriate protective equipment, maintaining good technique and form during play, engaging in speed or agility ladders drills to improve coordination and balance, hydrating properly and monitoring fatigue levels. Additionally, athletes should keep their tackling techniques legal and clean by leading with their shoulders and arms instead of their heads.

Yes, there are several things athletes can do to reduce the severity of physical contact sports injuries. These include warming up and stretching beforehand, taping injured areas, using protective gear such as pads and helmet chin straps, staying hydrated and avoiding fatigue, taking break throughout practices and games ,and engaging in strength training exercises that target muscle groups used in the sport. Additionally for team sports it is important to have a system of communication between players about where they will be on the field so that contacts can be made more strategically; this also encourages good offensive play design.
