The Relationship of Age, Body Mass Index and Player Position on Injury Rates in Women's Handball
The aim of the paper was to describe the most common injuries in senior and cadet handball players of Croatia Women’s National Handball Team during a period of two years and investigate the connection between the most common injuries and player positions such as back, wing and line position, as well as to investigate the possible impact of player’s age and body mass index (BMI) on the injury rates using Poisson regression. Older players had a lower probability of ankle dislocations but a higher probability for dislocations of the middle phalanx of the finger, thigh contusions and generally getting injured. Wing players had a lower probability of ankle dislocation and a lower probability of generally experiencing any injury than back players. BMI showed no relationship with the injury rates.
