Background: The long-term prognosis of jumper's knee and whether structural changes in the patellar tendon persist is unknown.
Purpose: To investigate whether limitations in knee function and structural changes persisted beyond the athletic career of young elite volleyball players.
Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 2.
Introduction: Groin injuries represent a considerable problem in football. Although the Adductor Strengthening Programme reduced groin injury risk, players can still experience groin symptoms throughout the season. This study aimed to determine whether preseason Copenhagen Hip and Groin Outcome Score (HAGOS) and a history of previous injury can identify individuals at risk of having a longer duration of groin problems the subsequent season, using an 'any physical complaint' definition of injury.

- The study aimed to see how jump load impacts knee issues in elite men's volleyball, using data from 65 players over three seasons.
- Data included jump frequency and height from daily sessions and weekly knee complaint reports, analyzed using complex statistical models.
- Findings showed no strong evidence linking weekly jump load to knee complaints or worsening symptoms, with slight differences in risk observed that suggest larger studies are needed for clearer conclusions.
The relationship between recent (acute) training load relative to long-term (chronic) training load may be associated with sports injury risk. We explored the potential for modelling acute and chronic loads separately to address current statistical methodology limitations. We also determined whether there was any evidence of an interaction in the association between acute and chronic training loads and injury risk in football.

- The study aimed to compare injury incidence and characteristics in Qatari professional football before and after the COVID-19 lockdown.
- It found that shortly after the lockdown, while there was no change in overall injury incidence, the injury burden was significantly lower.
- In the long-term post-lockdown, match injury rates decreased, but overall and training injury burdens increased, with a notable rise in adductor strains observed in both periods.
