Regular participation in grassroot sports may benefit adolescents by developing movement skills, fostering peer relationships, and cultivating positive attitudes and behaviors. However, increased volume and intensity of sport participation raise the risk of injuries, which may lead adolescents to quit sport. Hence, sport injuries are a public health concern, yet knowledge about injury prevalence in grassroot settings remains limited. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate: (a) the prevalence of injury in youth grassroot football players and (b) the relationships between prevalence of injury and potential risk factors; namely, sex, age group, social support, coach and peer autonomy support, and training load. Adolescents (n = 568; M = 15.7 years; and SD = 1.4) playing for U14-U19 teams in Agder County in Norway provided information pertaining to their participation in grassroot football. Although no differences in the prevalence of injuries or substantial injuries were found between sex and age groups, the results indicated differences in injury anatomical areas based on sex and age. Moreover, the results revealed that a higher injury prevalence was associated with a combination of lower levels of peer autonomy support, higher weekly accumulated total football activity, and being female. For substantial injuries, the combination of higher amounts of match time or being a player who perceived lower levels of coach autonomy support in the group accumulating least match time was associated with a higher injury prevalence. Our results showed a surprisingly high prevalence of injury in youth grassroot football, highlighting the need for future intervention studies.
经常参加基层体育运动可能会让青少年受益,比如发展运动技能、促进同伴关系以及培养积极的态度和行为。然而,运动参与量和强度的增加会提高受伤风险,这可能导致青少年退出体育运动。因此,运动损伤是一个公共卫生问题,但在基层环境中关于损伤发生率的知识仍然有限。所以,本研究的目的是调查:(a)青少年基层足球运动员的损伤发生率,以及(b)损伤发生率与潜在风险因素之间的关系;即性别、年龄组、社会支持、教练和同伴自主支持以及训练负荷。在挪威阿格德尔郡为U14 - U19球队效力的青少年(n = 568;M = 15.7岁;SD = 1.4)提供了与他们参与基层足球运动相关的信息。尽管在性别和年龄组之间未发现损伤或严重损伤发生率的差异,但结果表明基于性别和年龄的损伤解剖部位存在差异。此外,结果显示较高的损伤发生率与较低水平的同伴自主支持、较高的每周累计总足球活动量以及女性身份的综合情况相关。对于严重损伤,较多的比赛时间或在比赛时间积累最少的组中认为教练自主支持水平较低的球员这一组合与较高的损伤发生率相关。我们的结果显示青少年基层足球运动中损伤发生率高得惊人,凸显了未来进行干预研究的必要性。
