Muscle damage could affect the next match performance in sports when the time to recover from a previous match is shorter. We examined the interval between matches in nine team sports (e.g., soccer, rugby, field hockey, basketball, volleyball, baseball) and two racket sports (badminton, tennis) in World Cups held in 2022-2023, 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games and Gland Slam in 2023. We then performed narrative review using three electronic databases (PubMed, Scopus, Google Scholar) to get information about muscle damage and recovery in the 11 sports, and discussed whether the intervals in the events would be enough for athletes. We found that the match intervals varied among sports and events ranging from 0 to 17 days. The interval was the shortest for softball (0-2 days) and the longest (5-17 days) for rugby. Regarding muscle damage, changes in muscle function and/or performance measures after a match were not reported for cricket, volleyball and softball, but some information was available for other sports, although the studies did not necessarily use athletes who participated in the major events. It was found that recovery was longer for soccer and rugby than other sports. Importantly, the match-intervals in the events did not appear to accommodate the recovery time required from the previous match in many sports. This could increase a risk of injury and affect players' conditions and health. Changing the match-intervals may be difficult, since it affects the budget of sporting events, but an adequate interval between matches should be considered for each sport from the player's and coach's point of view.
当从上一场比赛中恢复的时间较短时，肌肉损伤可能会影响运动员在下一场比赛中的表现。我们研究了2022 - 2023年举办的世界杯、2020年东京奥运会以及2023年大满贯赛事中九项团队运动（如足球、橄榄球、曲棍球、篮球、排球、棒球）和两项球拍运动（羽毛球、网球）的比赛间隔。然后，我们使用三个电子数据库（PubMed、Scopus、谷歌学术）进行叙述性综述，以获取有关这11项运动中肌肉损伤和恢复的信息，并讨论这些赛事中的比赛间隔对运动员来说是否足够。我们发现，不同运动和赛事的比赛间隔各不相同，从0天到17天不等。垒球的比赛间隔最短（0 - 2天），橄榄球最长（5 - 17天）。关于肌肉损伤，板球、排球和垒球比赛后肌肉功能和/或表现指标的变化未见报道，但其他运动有一些相关信息，不过这些研究不一定使用了参加重大赛事的运动员。研究发现，足球和橄榄球的恢复时间比其他运动更长。重要的是，在许多运动中，赛事的比赛间隔似乎无法满足从上一场比赛中所需的恢复时间。这可能会增加受伤风险，并影响运动员的状态和健康。改变比赛间隔可能很困难，因为这会影响体育赛事的预算，但从运动员和教练的角度来看，应该为每项运动考虑合适的比赛间隔。
