I was delighted to present the findings, to date, on our injury surveillance project across the professional academies โฝ๏ธ in Scotland ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ at the conference, held in the stunning town of Svolvรฆr this week.
What we have found:
๐ถ Growth and maturation plays a significant role in the type and site of injuries
๐ค Circa-PHV exposes players to increased injury risk
๐ฆด Injuries follow patterns of growth in a distal to proximal pattern
๐ Increased injury severity with advancement in maturation process
Huge thanks to my supervisory team Sean Cu***ng, Sean Williams, Debbie Palmer OLY and Mark Leslie for their guidance and support with this project so far. And a huge shout out to the clubs for their excellent commitment and recording of the data for analysis.
