Abstract

The frequency, type and consequences of injuries in 6-11 year-old boys participating in association football (soccer) tournaments are analyzed. A frequency of 3.3 injuries per game or 0.15 injuries per player was found. 90 of the injuries were caused by falls or collisions between players. Sprains, bruises and contusions localized below the knee were most frequent. Compared to adult competitive soccer players, the injuries of children were minor and had less social consequences in the form of absence from school. Verf.-Referat
