Internationally, there is a lack of good quality, prospectively collected injury data reported for junior club cricketers. This study describes injury rates according to age level of play and playing positions in junior community-level club cricketers to identify priorities for prevention. A prospective cohort study was used to monitor injuries in 88 under 12 years (U12), 203 U14 and 120 U16 players from the Ballarat Junior Cricket Association, Australia over the 2007/2008 playing season. Injury rates were calculated per 1000 participations when batting, bowling or fielding in matches and training sessions. Injury rate ratios were used to compare rates across age levels of play and position of play. Overall, 47 injuries were reported. Injury rates increased with age level of play with only one U12 player injured. Match injury rates were 3.57 per 1000 U14 participations versus 4.80 per 1000 U16 participations. Training injury rates were 4.20 per 1000 U14 participations versus 5.11 per 1000 U16 participations. On a proportionate basis, injuries occurred equally to fielders, batters and bowlers. There was a trend towards more injuries occurring while batting and fielding in matches, and more injuries occurring while bowling and batting during training sessions. In conclusion, injury rates in junior cricket players are low, but increase with age level of play. Unlike adult forms of the game, injuries occur to fielders and batters at least as frequently as to bowlers, indicating that preventive strategies need to be developed for all junior players and not just bowlers, as has been the focus previously.
国际上缺乏针对青少年板球俱乐部运动员的高质量、前瞻性的损伤数据报告。本研究根据青少年社区俱乐部板球运动员的比赛年龄和比赛位置描述了损伤发生率，以确定预防的重点。本研究采用前瞻性队列研究监测了澳大利亚巴拉瑞特青少年板球协会的 88 名 12 岁以下(U12)、203 名 14 岁(U14)和 120 名 16 岁(U16)球员在 2007/2008 赛季的比赛和训练中的损伤情况。在比赛和训练中，当击球、投球或外场时，以每 1000 次参与计算损伤发生率。使用损伤率比值比较不同年龄段和比赛位置的损伤率。总的来说，报告了 47 例损伤。随着比赛年龄的增加，损伤发生率也随之增加，只有一名 U12 球员受伤。比赛中 U14 球员的损伤率为 3.57/1000 次，U16 球员为 4.80/1000 次。训练中 U14 球员的损伤率为 4.20/1000 次，U16 球员为 5.11/1000 次。按比例计算，外场员、击球手和投球手的损伤发生率相等。比赛中击球和外场时的损伤发生率呈上升趋势，而训练中投球和击球时的损伤发生率也呈上升趋势。总之，青少年板球运动员的损伤发生率较低，但随着比赛年龄的增加而增加。与成人形式的比赛不同，外场员和击球手的损伤发生率至少与投球手一样高，这表明需要为所有青少年球员制定预防策略，而不仅仅是投球手，因为之前的重点一直是投球手。
