[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Dani Czernuszka, a female rugby player who sued an opponent, Natasha King for \u00a310 million after she was paralysed for life by a tackle in a league match between her team Reading Sirens and Bracknell Ladies in October 2017, \u00a0has won her High Court case for compensation.<\/p>\n
The verdict, a first for the ladies game sets a new precedent for sporting injury claims in general.<\/p>\n
Justice Spencer said that, in executing the tackle, Ms King had been “intent only on exacting revenge” because she was angry at how the game had played out. “This was a reckless and dangerous act and fell below an acceptable standard of fair play.<\/p>\n
“I do find…that the ‘tackle’ was executed with reckless disregard for the claimant’s safety in a manner which was liable to cause injury and that the defendant was so angry by this time that she closed her eyes to the risk to which she was subjecting the claimant, a risk of injury which was clear and obvious”.<\/p>\n
The decision means Mrs Czernuszka is entitled to a compensation pay out, which will be assessed at a later date, if not agreed outside of court.<\/p>\n
