Abstract des Autors
Track and field is popular with both sexes. In this two-year study of trackand-field injuries in four high schools, 308 boys and 208 girls participated, and they sustained 101 and 73 injuries, respectively. Seventy-five percent of the injuries occurred during practice. Musculotendinous injuries were the mostcommon, and 85 of the injuries involved the lower extremities. Time loss of more than five days occurred more often with track-and-field injuries than those in other sports. The differences in boys and girls injury patterns cannot be explained by the variety of events alone. Verf.-Referat
