Overview

Brief Summary

The aim of our study is to obtain data on the occurrence of injuries, their mechanisms and types among children and adolescents from a youth soccer club. In addition, in order to determine the potential risk of injury, the investigators will examine the prognostic factors on the basis of tests assessing the antropometric, anatomical, physical and fitness characteristics.

Detailed Description

During the 2020/2023 seasons, participants will be obliged to report injuries to to sports physiotherapists. Supervision and data collection on injuries will be documented by experienced sports physiotherapists. Using the Injury Record Form, a standardized definition and classification of injuries in line with the International Olympic Committee Consensus describing methods for recording and reporting epidemiological data on injuries and diseases in sport (Bahr et al. 2020). In addition, the data will also come from a physiotherapeutic examination, and in the case of severe injuries (requiring specialist consultation), a medical examination (orthopedic and / or neurological) and imaging tests. Training and match exhibition (time spent by participants during training units and match games) will be recorded individually for each participant by the coaches of a given team (year). The given data (in minutes) will allow to determine the total time of sports exposure. The participant's missed training and / or competition due to an injury will also be analyzed.
