Area of Science:

  • Sports Medicine
  • Pediatric Sports Injuries
  • Golf Biomechanics

Background:

  • Elite adolescent golfers are susceptible to injuries impacting performance and development.
  • Understanding injury patterns and risk factors is crucial for injury prevention strategies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To determine the prevalence, patterns, and management of golf-related injuries in elite adolescent golfers.
  • To investigate the association between training volume and injury occurrence in this population.

Main Methods:

  • A cross-sectional survey study was conducted with 56 elite adolescent golfers (aged 10-19) in Western Australia.
  • Retrospective data on injuries and training volume over 12 months were collected via electronic survey.
  • Descriptive statistics and logistic regression analyses were used to assess injury risk factors.

Main Results:

  • The 12-month injury incidence rate was 0.100 per 1000 hours of combined golf practice and competition.
  • The most common injury locations were mid-back (47.06%), ankle (29.41%), and lower back (29.41%).
  • No significant correlation was found between training volume and injury risk (OR: 0.96; 95% CI: 0.87-1.06).

Conclusions:

  • Elite adolescent golfers have a notable injury prevalence, particularly affecting the back and lower extremities.
  • Current training volumes do not appear to be a significant predictor of injury risk in this cohort.
  • Further research with larger sample sizes may be needed to confirm these findings.
