Abstract

Backgrounds: Football players often get their ankles injured in the sport, which is believed to be one of the important factors that affect football players’ sport career. However, to date, the effects of these injuries on football players' sports skills have not yet been thoroughly investigated. The present study is to examine the correlation between the ankle injury history and the performance of sports skills. Methods: A questionnaire survey on the history of sports injuries and football skills tests were conducted among 26 amateur football players from primary and secondary schools in Shanghai. Results: compared with healthy athletes, significant differences were identified between football players with and without ankle injury history in the success rate of shooting (F1,24=5.769, p=0.024). Conclusion: Positive correlation was found between different football skills. The ankle joint injury is significantly related to the shooting skills.
