Objectives
Understanding how injuries occur (inciting circumstances) is useful for developing etiological hypotheses and prevention strategies that can be tested. The aims of this study were 1) to evaluate the feasibility of a method combining video... Read More about Do non-contact injuries occur during high-speed running in elite football?

Aiello, F. Analysis of circumstances leading to injuries in elite football players. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University

Understanding injury mechanisms is key to developing prevention strategies. Information concerning injury mechanisms can be obtained by analysing the sportspecific activities during which injuries occur (i.e., inciting circumstances). Despite the rec...
