| Popis: | The objective of this research was to determine factors related to injury for adult recreational and old‐timer hockey players. Four hundred and thirty‐one players from 5 hockey leagues were followed during an entire hockey season. Risk factor regression equations for facial injury, body contact injury, sprain/strain injury, and all injuries were determined using multiple logistic regression analysis. A total of 151 injuries were reported. Thirty‐two facial injuries were suffered by players, 51 injuries were a result of intentional and unintentional body contact between players, and 59 injuries diagnosed as either sprains or strains. Facial injuries were statistically predicted by the interaction of shooting side with player position. The multivariable equation for body contact injury included player weight as well as the number of other fitness activities a player participated in. The multivariable equation for sprain/strain injuries included age, self‐reported skill, and previous injury history. The usef... |
