Excerpt: Sports Medicine (or Sports Medicine and Sports Science) is as an umbrella term comprising Sports Medicine proper as well as Sports Orthopaedic Surgery, Sports Physiotherapy, and the Sports Sciences. The latter can be subdivided into five disciplines (Figure 1). Sports Physicians, unlike Sports Orthopaedic Surgeons, deal mostly with the non-surgical aspects such as the management of injuries that are treated non-surgically, exercise testing, exercise prescription, anti-doping, and the management of medical conditions related to sports and exercise.

Excerpt: Automatic classification of activities in a sports arena is important in order to analyse and optimise the use of the arenas. In this work we classify five sports types based only on occupancy heatmaps produced from position data. Due to privacy issues we use thermal imaging for detecting people and then calculate their positions on the court using homography. Heatmaps are produced by summarising Gaussian distributions representing people over 10-minute periods. Before classification the heatmaps are projected to a low-dimensional discriminative space using the principle of Fisherfaces. Our re

Excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine arm and trunk actions in overhead forehand strokes used in badminton games across skill levels. The participants were 80 students (40 boys, 40 girls) who were randomly selected from video recordings of 300 students ages 16 to 19 years. The videotaped performances of overhead forehand strokes were coded based on three steps of arm action (elbow flexion, elbow and humeral flexion, and upward backswing) and three steps of trunk action (no trunk action, forward-backward movement, and trunk rotation). Students across the four skill levels exhibited different

Excerpt: Biddle and Hill (1992) have demonstrated the importance of considering subjective performance outcomes (the individual’s own assessment of his/her performance) in sport psychology research. However, Cox and Kerr (1989) and Males and Kerr (1996) measured only objective performance outcomes (performance finishing time or position). Considering this, and the equivocal support for the reversal theory proposals outlined above, it seems that further empirical inquiry is required into these proposals across a range of sports contexts, performers and outcomes. This is particularly important if rever

Excerpt: An elite junior badminton player presented with a chronic painful dominant shoulder after an intense training course. An acute stress fracture to the proximal humeral epiphysis was found. Two-plane radiography will identify abnormalities of the growth plate but comparative films of the unaffected side may also be required to differentiate subtle changes. Rest with subsequent rehabilitation is the appropriate management of these injuries although ideally they should be subjected to primary prevention.

Excerpt: Stress fractures are partial or complete fractures of a bone resulting from its inability to withstand stress applied during repetitive trauma. Stress fractures of the lower extremity, such as the tibia and the metatarsal bone, are common injuries in physically active athletes; however, stress fractures of the upper extremity are significantly less common 2,8. In this report, we present a stress fracture of the second metacarpal bone in a badminton player at junior high school.
