Heartbeat of Football

Heartbeat of Football Promoting heart health through sport There is a tendency to focus on heart issues only after a tragedy, however Heartbeat of Football aims to change this.

In Australia, it is believed there have been 10 cases of heart-related deaths of amateur football players in the past two years, with the latest on a Sunday morning in January 2016. As ever-increasing members of the community see the benefits of, and enjoy taking part in, amateur sport, Heartbeat of Sport is proactive in both education to prevent heart-related events, and in procuring the necessary equipment (in the form of defibrillators) to help prevent deaths following on-field heart incidences.

*****
FUNDRAISING

Heartbeat of Football (HOF) is constantly fundraising so as to allow the purchase of defibrillators for placement on sporting grounds around the country. If you are hosting an event and would like to help HOF raise money, or would like to make a donation, please contact Deborah at info@heartbeatoffootball.com.au
