The third aspect of the programme is the Spineline service, which is a rapid response emergency service which operates from a national toll free number 0800 678 678. This service and it’s correct use are explained in the Rugby Medic Club Training Programme.

The Chris Burger/Petro Jackson Players’ Fund together with S.A. Rugby has identified the need for an organised rapid response transport system to assist rugby players who may suffering from head and spinal injuries.

In the event of a serious injury, the Spineline toll free number 0800 678 678 should be dialled. Netcare 911 will dispatch an emergency vehicle to the scene to transport the injured player to an appropriate medical facility for further treatment. If the patient is not on medical aid then the cost of the transport will be borne by Netcare 911. Please contact the Fund for your complimentary whistle strap with the Spineline number on it.
