Why InciTent started on a GAA pitch
Our founder, Jonah Roche, attended an incident at a rural GAA club where a young female player had a suspected spinal injury. She lay on the pitch for over an hour in heavy rain waiting for an ambulance. There was nothing to shelter her from the weather, or from the people watching. That day fed directly into the design of InciTent. Jonah is also a former scenes of crime examiner, so he knows how much privacy and an undisturbed scene matter.
Privacy and shelter for injured players
Clubs today know they have a duty to protect players, especially juveniles. When a player goes down with a head, neck or leg injury, phones come out quickly. InciTent gives your first-aider a private, sheltered space at the pitch side, so the player is shielded from rain, wind and cameras while they're cared for and the ambulance is on its way.
InciTent has no floor, so it goes straight over a player lying on the ground, with no need to move someone with a suspected neck or back injury. The roof is built in, it's waterproof and patent pending, and it sets up in 10 seconds. It folds to a flat 60 cm disc, so it's easy to keep beside the kit bag.
- 3-Sided Tent: an open side for easy access by your first-aider. See the 3-Sided Tent
- 4-Sided Tent: fully encloses the casualty, with a zip along one long side for access. See the 4-Sided Tent
- Club packs: one for every pitch. 2-tent pack · 3-tent pack
InciTent sits alongside your first-aid kit and defibrillator. It doesn't replace trained first-aid cover. Read our pitch-side first-aid kit checklist.
