Nintendo Switch - Consistent Game Crash

Hi, so I’m playing on the switch and periodically (every half hour - hour) the game crashes as I load into a match. This means I have to kill it and restart in order to get back into the match only half the time it doesn’t work so I just get a matchmaking penalty. When this starts hap it seems to just create a manual boot loop just to try and play the game. I genuinely couldn’t tell you what’s wrong with it despite being somewhat of a tech guy I’m just hoping it’s not so simple as a hardware error. That being the console is too old.
