Abstract

Futsal is a kind of sport that has a high risk of being injured. Incident of injury can give serious consequence for player, team (especially when there is no substitute player who has the same quality), and public health system. The study shows that women tend to have ACL injury risk that is higher than men do (2,4-9,5%). The study was aimed to describe experiences of medical officers to cope with women futsal athletes’ injury. The study was set as descriptive qualitative study by using phenomenological approach that involved 3 members of medical officers by using purposive sampling technique. The data were collected through in depth interview and then were analysed thematically. The finding shows that medical officers of women futsal team have been able to cope with injury of the sport well. However, medical check-up, evaluation, and injury prevention process haven’t been comprehensively conducted due to their background that doesn’t come from medical profession.
