“…Soccer injuries have been reported to occur for the most part in the lower extremity in youth players (17,18), as is the case for professional (19) and senior players (20,21). The possible explanations for this are as follows: i) in soccer players, the lower extremity joints are subjected to severe mechanical stresses and are easily injured due to excessive and repetitive use of the joints; and ii) soccer players expose their lower extremity joints to repetitive intense impacts and torsional and/or axial loads.…”

“…This could be explained by the finding that relatively more sprains are localized in the ankle joint of soccer players (22). Furthermore, a substantial number of preceding studies have demonstrated that among all joint injuries occurring in soccer players the ankle sprain is the most common (17)(18)(19)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(29). The results from the present study showed that the VAS scores for the 'pain on moving' subscale were substantially higher than the scores for the 'pain at rest' subscale and 'pain on pressing' at the ankle joint, as well as other lower extremity joints in youth soccer players.…”

Abstract. Much of our focus of attention has been on subclinical or subtle joint pain experienced by healthy soccer players. The present study aimed to determine at which joint such subclinical pains are the most prominent, and to examine the pain-relieving effect of a chicken comb extract (CCE)-containing supplement product (test product) on these athletes. A total of 46 collegiate soccer players, consisting of 24 leading and 22 substitute players, belonging to a university soccer team were enrolled for measuring the pains at 4 different joints (ankle, knee, hip and shoulder) using 3 pain subscales of a 100-mm visual analog scale (VAS) ('pain at rest', 'pain on pressing' and 'pain on moving'), and participated in a prospective, double-blind, controlled study. A total of 23 subjects each received the test product (4,800 mg/day) (test group) and placebo (placebo group) for 12 weeks. VAS pain scores of individual joints were evaluated at baseline and following 4, 8 and 12 weeks of the intervention. VAS scores for the 'pain on moving' subscale in 46 enrolled subjects were highest at the ankle joint, and thus the values (abbreviated as 'pain scores') were used as a parameter for efficacy assessment of the test product. Compared to the baseline, the pain scores were significantly decreased for the dominant foot (but not for the non-dominant foot) in the total subpopulation (at week 4; p<0.01) and the leading player subpopulation (at week 4; p<0.01 and at week 12; p<0.05) in the test group (n=19 and 11, respectively). In comparison between the test product and placebo groups, the pain scores were significantly changed for the dominant foot (p<0.05) at week 4 in the total subpopulation and at week 12 in the leading player subpopulation in the test group. Thus, subclinical joint pain is most prominently observed at the ankle joint of the dominant foot in healthy young soccer players and may be improved by the daily intake of the CCE-containing supplement. IntroductionSoccer is one of the sports most likely to cause not only clinically recognized joint injuries but also unrecognized minute ones due to the overuse, repetitive impact and torsional loading of joints. Furthermore, these conditions may be aggravated by several factors, including excessive mechanical loads and repeated microtrauma. These factors are known to enhance articular cartilage damage in soccer players. In this context, there are supporting data demonstrating that the risk of cartilage damage is increased in soccer (and certain other sports), where the repetitive intense impact and torsional loading are subjected to the joints (1), and may be implicated in the chronic development of osteoarthritis (OA) (2-4). Indeed, several clinical studies have demonstrated that the risk of OA is higher in soccer players, as well as in certain other groups of athletes, than in control non-athlete groups (5-11).In the course of health management of collegiate soccer players, we noticed that most players, particularly leading players, suffer from subtle lower extremity...

“…Most of the studies are more than 20 years old (Backous et al, 1988;Maehlum et al, 1986;Schmidt-Olsen et al, 1985;Nilsson & Roaas, 1978). Only one recently study was found (Soligard, 2010, personal communication).…”

“…Most of the studies on female youth football players are from Europe and NorthAmerica with the injury incidence ranging from 4.6 to 22.4 per 1000 match hours and 0.4 to 4.6 per 1000 training hours in seasonal play (Froholdt et al, 2009;Soligard et al, 2008;Le Gall et al, 2008;Steffen et al, 2007;Emery et al, 2005;Söderman et al, 2001a) and from 5.1 to 44.0 per 1000 match hour in tournament play (Soligard, 2010, personal communication;Backous et al, 1988;Maehlum et al, 1986;Schmidt-Olsen et al 1985;Nilsson & Roaas, 1978).…”

Fornote: Cover picture is retrieved from MYSA shootback office. Permission to reproduce has been received from Stephen Muchoki, Sports manager in MYSA (Appendix 1). Objective: To analyze the incidence, characteristics and circumstance of injuries during a two-day national female youth football tournament in Kenya.Method: Injuries were registered on a standardized injury report form by specially trained Kenyan injury reporters. They were supported by four physiotherapist and two doctors.Injuries were defined as all injuries, painful conditions or physical complaints that occurred during the match, regardless if the player could continue to play.Results: A total of 252 injuries were reported from 106 matches. The incidence of all injuries was 191.2 injuries/1000h [95% CI 167.6-214.8]. Most injuries allowed the players to continue to play (n=199; 80%). U13 players had an increased risk of injury compared to U16 players (RR=1.36; 95% CI 1.01-1.84; p=0.043) and O16 players (RR=1.50; 95% CI 1.16-2.11; p=0.003). Fourteen injuries (6%; 10.6 injuries/1000h; 95% CI 5.1-16.2) were expected to result in absence from play for at least 1-7 days. The injuries most commonly involved the lower limb (n= 184; 73%). A contusion to the knee (n=27; 11%) and ankle (n=26; 10%) were the most common specific injury types. Most acute injuries (188 of 238, 79%) were caused by player contact. Conclusion:The incidence of injuries among female youth football players in a national tournament in Kenya was high. U13 players had the highest injury risk. Contusions to the knee and ankle were the most common specific injury types. Most of the injured players had minor injuries and could continue to play, which is positive since football is used to develop individuals and communities.

“…The three most commonly reported ' injuries (excluding abrasions and blisters) were contusions, sprains/strains, and fractures. About two-thirds of the injuries were to the lower extremities (Nilsson and Roaas, 1978).…”
