The purpose of this study is to clarify the associations between joint function, movement patterns, performance indicators, questionnaire-based assessments, and volleyball-related injuries in volleyball players, and to obtain findings that will contribute to the development of injury prevention strategies.
Others
The detailed objective of this study is to clarify the baseline cross-sectional characteristics of joint function, movement patterns, performance indicators, and questionnaire-based assessments, and to examine whether these variables are associated with the occurrence of volleyball-related musculoskeletal injuries and the injury reporting rate during the prospective follow-up period, in order to explore factors useful for injury prevention.
Occurrence of volleyball-related musculoskeletal injuries during the follow-up period and injury reporting rate (the proportion of players who reported injuries)
Range of motion, muscle strength, joint position sense, dynamic stability, shoulder girdle function, trunk function, attack movement variables, performance indicators, and questionnaire-based assessments
Observational
| 15 | years-old | <= |
| 18 | years-old | >= |
Male and Female
Players who belong to a high school volleyball team and regularly participate in volleyball activities; are able to undergo the baseline assessment and cooperate with injury surveillance during the follow-up period; and provide written informed consent, with additional written consent from a legal guardian for minors.
Participants meeting any of the following criteria will be excluded:
- Players who have an acute injury or severe musculoskeletal condition at baseline that restricts participation in volleyball.
- Players with a history of surgery involving the upper extremity, trunk, or lower extremity, or with neurological disorders or other conditions that may affect the assessment of joint function, movement, or performance, as judged by the principal investigator.
- Players who are unable to complete the baseline assessment.
- Players who are considered unlikely to cooperate with injury surveillance during the follow-up period.
- Players from whom written informed consent cannot be obtained from the participant or, for minors, from a legal guardian.

This study is an observational study combining a baseline cross-sectional assessment with prospective follow-up. At baseline, volleyball players will undergo assessments of joint function, movement patterns, performance indicators, and questionnaire-based measures. During the follow-up period, the occurrence of volleyball-related musculoskeletal injuries and the injury reporting rate will be recorded, and their associations with baseline variables will be examined.
