Although previous retrospective studies have led one to expect injuries in volleyball to be quite frequent and relatively serious in nature, a recent prospective study has shown that actual injury rates are quite low, most injuries did not require a player to lose time from play, and only a very few injuries were sufficiently severe to force a player to take more than 5 days of rest. Anterior cruciate injuries were quite rare in the prospective study. As was previously thought, ankle sprain is the most common injury in volleyball. Front-row positions and attempts to block the ball are most often associated with injuries compared with the back-row positions and other attempted manoeuvres. Overuse injuries far outstrip acute injuries in terms of frequency and appear to be related both to repetitive use and to technique errors. Technique evaluation is recommended when overuse injury is diagnosed. Prevention of injury is best accomplished through preseason strength training and attention to technique during the season.
尽管先前的回顾性研究让人预期排球运动中的伤病会相当频繁且性质相对严重，但最近一项前瞻性研究表明，实际的伤病发生率相当低，大多数伤病并不需要运动员停止比赛，只有极少数伤病严重到迫使运动员休息超过5天。在前瞻性研究中，前交叉韧带损伤相当罕见。正如之前所认为的，踝关节扭伤是排球运动中最常见的伤病。与后排位置和其他动作相比，前排位置和拦网动作最常与伤病相关。就发生频率而言，过度使用伤病远超急性伤病，而且似乎与反复使用和技术错误都有关。当诊断出过度使用伤病时，建议进行技术评估。预防伤病的最佳方法是通过季前力量训练以及在赛季中注重技术。
