Asthma is one of the most common chronic conditions affecting 1 in 5 people at some stage of their lives. Regular exercise, physical activity and being involved in sport can help your asthma and should not be a reason why you can’t take part.
The below resources, produced by the Asthma Society of Ireland, will assist club players, coaches and parents, and will cover the basics of asthma, how to manage your asthma on and off the field, managing the hay fever season, and what to do in the event of an asthma emergency.
Whether you're a coach, club administrator, parent, or player, these resources will help equip you with the tools and knowledge to ensure asthma doesn’t stand in the way of performance or participation. Anyone concerned about their own, or their child's condition, should seek medical guidance from their GP.
