Summary

Evidence-based injury prevention training is highly effective in reducing sport-related musculoskeletal injuries in youth. However, this training has so far had limited public health impact because it is not widely or properly implemented or sustained. In this single case study with youth teams from two handball clubs in Southern Sweden, the aim is to test the I-PROTECT model, featuring injury prevention training and an associated implementation plan. The main hypothesis is that the intervention will result in higher motivational and volitional levels in relation to injury prevention training.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

I-PROTECT

The I-PROTECT model is based on existing research and knowledge of experts in sport medicine, sport psychology and implementation science, with the involvement of end-users throughout the process. The interdisciplinary intervention includes exercises based on physical and psychological principles of effective injury prevention training, specifically tailored for youth handball players, and support for developing a continuous implementation strategy. The intervention is delivered through a mobile application (the I-PROTECT GO), including modules tailored for coaches, players, club administrators, and caregivers, respectively. Coaches are introduced to the intervention in a workshop, and they will conduct the exercises with their teams during handball practice. Due to pandemic restrictions, the mobile application could not be finalized, and only the module for coaches was available.
