Incidence of Injury in Indoor Soccer
Abstract
All injuries occurring over a 7-week period at a local indoor soccer arena were documented for analysis of incidence rates. All injury rates were calculated per 100 player-hours. The overall injury rates for male and fe male players were similar, 5.04 and 5.03, respectively. The lowest injury rate was found among the 19- to 24- year-old athletes and the highest injury rate was found among the oldest age group (≥25 years). Collision with another player was the most common activity at the time of injury, accounting for 31 % of all injuries. The most common injury types were sprains and muscle contu sions, both occurring at a rate of 1.1 injuries per 100 player-hours. Male players suffered a significantly higher rate of ankle ligament injuries compared with fe male players (1.24 versus 0.43, P< 0.05), while female players suffered a significantly higher rate of knee liga ment injuries (0.87 versus 0.29, P< 0.01). Goalkeepers had injury rates (4.2) similar to players in nongoalkeeper positions (4.5).

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
