Risk factors and injury patterns in beach tennis players

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

Researchers will enroll a national cohort of adult beach tennis players who train at least once per week and follow them prospectively for one year to record injuries. Baseline information on training habits, prior injuries, and demographics will be collected and participants will report new injuries during follow-up. The prospective design aims to avoid recall and temporal biases common in past cross-sectional work and to measure injury incidence and timing. Results will be used to identify common injury types and modifiable risk factors to inform prevention and medical care.
