KNOWLEDGE, ATTITUDE AND INJURY PREVENTION AWARENESS AMONG YOUNG BADMINTON PLAYERS: AN ONLINE CROSS-SECTIONAL SURVEY STUDY

Description

The fastest overhead racquet sport, badminton is extremely physically demanding, requiring distinct racquet movements, motor control and balance, as well as coordination skills including reaction time and footwork. The upper extremity is subjected to extreme stress due to frequent overhead movements, whereas, the lunge action enables the player to successfully halt their body's motion and provide a sturdy platform from which to execute the required shot.

Steps to reproduce

A self-made questionnaire was used to gather information from young badminton players. It was distributed through online and used the snowball sampling method to assess their knowledge, attitudes, and awareness of injury prevention.
