Outline of Final Research Achievements

The overall incidence was higher during games than during practices in Japanese mini-basketball players and junior soccer players in this study. Sprains and contusions were common injuries during games, and most game injuries resulted from body contact or other contact with the ball, floor, ground, or other objects. Especially, the practice injury rate was 1.6 to 1.7 times higher in Japanese mini-basketball players than that in higher school players in the USA, suggesting that problems lie in training conditions such as the number of days, duration, and coaching methods, leading to an injury-prone practice environment for Japanese mini-basketball players. In addition, the incidence during games and practices in the mini-basketball players was higher than that in the junior soccer players. In functional movement of mini-basketball players, there were not significant differences between boys and girls, and between those who reported a previous injury and those who did not.
