PREVENTION IN RACKET SPORTS
PREVENCIJA I ZDRAVLJE U IGRAMA S REKETOM
Sport Mont 2010, VII(21-22), 36-40
Interest in sport activities and among them, also in racket sports, has grown in recent
years because of the increase in leisure time as well as the belief that general health
can be enhanced by improved physical fitness. As a result of increasing participation, intensity,
demands and longer training periods, the potential risk of injuries in racket
sports seems to increase on all levels. As all four racket sports have developed during the
last decade and player’s techniques have improved, the ball’s speed and spin have become
too fast and which is why rallies are quicker and shorter. Therefore the movements
are often short and abrupt and this can cause some injuries of the human’s loco motor
system. It is necessary to understand what factors an injury-prevention strategy has to involve
- for all players, for top players as well as for recreational players. As with any other
sport, there are some injuries that are typical for racket sports. Sports medicine findings,
along with medicine and science findings, inevitably contribute to injury prevention
and injury treatment programs for racket sports players. performance, prevention, racket sports
