INJURIES SURVEILLANCE IN CZECH YOUTH FOOTBALL: A 23 WEEK EXAMINATION WITH U 19 AND U 18 PLAYERS
Original language description
This aimed to describe the characteristics of injuries sustained by youth football players from a professional team in the Czech Republic, considering the context, type, location and severity throughout the 23-week football season. Thirty-three male players from U-19 (n=19) and U-18 belonging to a football club were monitored during the 23-week season in 2023. Information regarding injury context (match or training), type, location and severity (slight, minimal, mild, moderate or severe) was collected by an injury form, at the end of week 23. The prevalence of injuries among the players were 64% (n=21), (U-19 n=11; U-18 n=10). In U-19, 64% of cases of injuries occurred during the matches and for U-18, 80% occurred during the training sessions; The knee (24%) and ankle (29%) were the locations more frequent for the injured. The type of injury most frequent in U-19 was nerve injury (30%) and in U-18 was muscle rupture/ strain/ tear/ cramps (40%). Among the players, 43% of cases were classi ed as severe injuries (U-19 n=5; U-18 n=4). In conclusion, the study reveals a concerning prevalence of injuries among youth football players from a professional team in the Czech Republic. The ndings highlight a signi cant proportion of severe injuries, with the knee and ankle being the most frequently a ected locations. Additionally, there are notable di erences in the context and types of injuries between the U-19 and U-18 age groups, indicating potential variations in injury patterns based on age categories.
