SHOCK NEWS: Stacker Retires From Fatal Injury

Written by: coach - Posted in: World Tour, Fiji

We are sad to announce that Timothy H has suffered an injury which has resulted in him retiring from competitive sport stacking.

The lads were training after arriving in Fiji. They were stacking with intense speed and suddenly Tim buckled over when he twisted both wrists. He knew that something was wrong so went to the doctor in New Zealand to get them checked. The doctor had a look and did a few tests, he found that with his phenomenal developments of speed stacking skills over the past 12 months, it had taken its toll on his wrists and Tim has now been diagnosed with the most fatal injury a stacker could have; ’stackers wrist.’
The doctor says that he can stack again but his wrists will not recover for him to stack as fast as he once did. This now counts him out of any competitve stacking for life.

UK Stack Pack Coach says, “I will be responsible to help Tim in any way possible. I will see if the most advanced physiotherapy can help get him back, but if it looks like his wrists will be put at risk then he certainly won’t be able to stack again.

A great loss to a man with great skill and love for a sport. But also a great loss to the sport, with signs clearly visiable for International stardom and to give something special to the UK.

We wish Tim all the best of luck in making a quick recovery.
