Family of footballer who died from cardiac arrest 'shocked, disappointed' as FA opposes coroner's wishes
The family of Adam Ankers, the 17-year-old footballer who died from sudden cardiac arrest, say they are “disappointed and shocked” after learning that the Football Association is opposing a coroner’s wishes for coaches and referees to receive mandatory training aimed at preventing future deaths.Ankers, who played for the Wycombe Wanderers foundation team, collapsed during a game in January 2024, leading to a coroner writing to the FA to express her concerns that the sport was not doing enough to tackle the risks of players suffering cardiac arrest.Advertisementالمصدر: The Athletic | Source: The Athletic
