Abstract
Ankles are sprained when supported on an unstable foundation, while too rigidly fixed to the playing surface, or when forced into unnatural positions by extrinsic muscle tightness. The unstable foundation may be the shoe itself, a chuckhole, or another players foot. Undue fixation may be by 1-inch mud cleats, baseball spikes, or a modern wrestling mat. When these circumstances occur, heel cord tightness may alter the ankles response. Thus, prevention ofankle sprains may be by modification of any of these factors. Verf.-Referat
