Summary: | 碩士 === 中國文化大學 === 體育學系運動教練碩博士班 === 101 === Basketball is an open kinetic chain sport with high-speed, fast pace, power, coordination, physical contact, and is considered a high injury incidence sport. Purpose: The aims of this study were to investigate the cause and effect, timing, situation, and body sites of injuries occurred in collegiate first grade women's basketball players. Different offensive and defensive positions were also analyzed. Method: This study adopted the questionnaire by the author Chiu Li-Jen (2011) and 104 collegiate women’s basketball players participated in the study. The research carried out a statistical analysis of these data by adopting a variety of methods, including descriptive statistics, One-way ANOVA, Pearson product-moment correlation, chi-square test, and Scheffe’s method for post-hoc comparison and the sigmificant level was set α=.05. Results: It showed as follows: First, the distribution of injury: The timing of injuries was highest in practice (58.22%); the cause was inadequate offense or defense (19.25%); the part of body was ankle joint (25.95%); the types were mainly sprain, strain, and contusion. Second, the analysis between player offensive and defensive position and sport injury: the point guard showed lower correlation with competition (r = .212, P<.05); the center showed medium correlation with other variables (r = .328, P<.05); and reached significant change: center > point guard. Otherwise, the point guard and court showed low correlation (r=.243, P<.05). The point guard and calf performed low correlation (r=.244, P<.05); the center and upper back (r = .245, P<.05), center and sole (r=.248, P<.05), point guard and contusion (r = .193, P<.05), point guard and trauma (r = .211, P<.05), point guard and sprain ( r = .211, P<.05) were all low correlation; but center and myotenositis showed medium correlation (r=.300, P<.05). Third, the potential injury in basketball court: The key (restricted area) was 54.32%, the key to three-point line was 28.44%, outside the three-point line performed 17.24%. The point guard and three-point line showed medium correlation (r=.401, P<.05); point guard and key showed low negative correlation (r=-.211, P<.05); and point guard and key to three-point line was low correlation (r=.267, P<.05).
Key word: contact sport, injury prevention
