“…Our findings that context mediates enactment of behavior mechanisms seems to be consistent with recent studies (Räisänen et al 2021;Owoeye et al, 2020) and the findings related to realist evaluation (Mitchell, 1997;Pawson & Tilley, 1994), and policy enactment studies in physical education and sport pedagogy (Hammond et al, 2020;Landi et al, 2021;O'Gorman et al, 2021). Owoeye et al (2020) found coaches were inclined to remove strength and balance related tasks in favor of exercises deemed to be more relevant to basketball performance. Similar findings were reflected in the study by Räisänen et al (2021) into the use of NMT-based warm-ups by youth basketball coaches, which found 48% of coaches spent 10-minutes of less on the warm-up component in their practices.…”

“…to vary (Norcross et al, 2016;Owoeye et al, 2020;Räisänen et al, 2021). A recent study by Owoeye et al (2020), found that coaches altered NMT programs based on perceived relevance to performance as well as player interest. Owoeye and colleagues' findings suggest a lack of comprehension for the importance of FMS in the development of youth basketball players.…”

Purpose: To investigate youth basketball coaches’ perceptions and implementation of fundamental movement skills training. Method: Snowball and criterion-based sampling approaches were used to survey youth basketball coaches (n=79) beliefs and experiences relating to their perceptions and implementation of nonbasketball-specific skills and fundamental movement skills into practice. Realist evaluation inspired the analysis of descriptive statistics (means and frequencies) and reflexive qualitative thematic analysis to inform the results. Results: It was found that the participants had a comprehension of fundamental movement skills and acknowledge their value in the long-term development of youth players. However, there appeared to be varying levels of uptake among the surveyed coaches. Discussion: Based on these findings, coaches appear to hold sports specialization in a higher regard than the broader aspects of player development, illustrating a dichotomized perspective of fundamental movement skills and basketball. Conclusion: The findings suggest there is a need for governing bodies to develop innovative strategies to persuade youth basketball coaches to adopt nonsports-specific movement skills to improve their practice.

“…Coaches reported a median duration of 10-15 min to complete Activate, suggesting the programme was not implemented as intended. Low exercise fidelity in youth athletes, with players not completing all preventative exercises 38 42 or performing them incorrectly, [42][43][44] has been reported in the literature. It is unclear whether the shorter duration noted in this study is related to issues regarding exercise fidelity, but further evaluation is warranted given the potential negative impact on effectiveness.…”

ObjectivesThe implementation of the Activate injury prevention exercise programme has not been assessed in an applied context. This study aimed to (1) describe the knowledge and perceptions of school rugby coaches and players towards injury risk, prevention and Activate and (2) evaluate Activate implementation in schoolboy rugby using the reach, effectiveness, adoption, implementation and maintenance framework.MethodsBespoke electronic surveys were administered to coaches (including support staff) and players at participating English schools (2018–2020). Most questions and statements were answered using a 7-point Likert scale. At baseline, participants detailed their Activate awareness and perceptions of injury risk and prevention in schoolboy rugby. At postseason, participants reported Activate use throughout the study and their perceptions towards the programme.ResultsAt baseline, significant differences existed between coaches (n=106) and players (n=571) in Activate awareness (75% and 13% respectively; χ2=173.5, p<0.001). Coaches perceived rugby had a significantly greater injury risk than players, while holding more positive perceptions towards injury prevention. At postseason, coaches reported greater Activate adoption compared with players (76% and 18% respectively; χ2=41.8, p<0.001); 45% of players were unaware if they used the programme. Median session adherence was twice weekly, with a median duration of 10–15 min. This suggests Activate was not implemented as intended, with recommendations of three 20 min sessions per week. Both groups identified common barriers to implementation, such as lack of time and inclusion of a ball.ConclusionCoaches are instrumental in the decision to implement Activate. Targeting behavioural change in these individuals is likely to have the greatest impact on intervention uptake.

“…The role of warm-up in reducing injury risk is not clear ( Fradkin et al, 2006 ; McCrary et al, 2015 ), and adherence to warm-up protocols may interfere with its effectiveness ( Owoeye et al, 2020 ), i.e., the frequency and degree of compliance to the warm-up protocol may largely dictate how effective the protocol is. It is unclear whether different types of warm-ups induce distinct acute effects on modifiable injury risk factors ( Niederer et al, 2020 ).…”

The Hamstrings: Anatomic and Physiologic Variations and Their Potential Relationships With Injury Risk

et al. 2021

The incidence and recurrence of hamstrings injuries are very high in sports, posing elevated performance and financial-related costs. Attempts to identify the risk factors involved in predicting vulnerability to hamstrings injury is important for designing exercise-based programs that aim to mitigate the rate and severity of hamstrings injuries and improve rehabilitation strategies. However, research has shown that non-modifiable risk factors may play a greater role than modifiable risk factors. Recognizing non-modifiable risk factors and understanding their implications will afford the prescription of better suited exercise programs, i.e., that are more respectful of the individual characteristics. In a nutshell, non-modifiable risk factors can still be acted upon, even if indirectly. In this context, an underexplored topic is how intra and inter- individual anatomic and physiologic variations in hamstrings (e.g., muscle bellies, fiber types, tendon length, aponeurosis width, attachment sites, sex- and age-related differences) concur to alter hamstrings injuries risk. Some anatomic and physiologic variations may be modifiable through exercise interventions (e.g., cross-sectional area), while others may not (e.g., supernumerary muscle bellies). This apparent dichotomy may hide a greater complexity, i.e., there may be risk factors that are partially modifiable. Therefore, we explored the available information on the anatomic variations of the hamstrings, providing a deeper insight into the individual risk factors for hamstrings injuries and contributing with better knowledge and potential applications toward a more individualized exercise prescription.
