Abstract
A 12-week randomized controlled trial was conducted to evaluate the effects of an education and exercise-based programme among competitive youth volleyball athletes. Forty-five participants were randomized into intervention (n = 23) and control groups (n = 22). The intervention group attended the "Education program for youth athletes" in Week 1 and the "Exercise program" over 12 weeks. The education programme improved participants' knowledge scores concerning overuse injuries and the growth and maturation process during adolescence from baseline to Week 12 (p = .001). The exercise programme improved shoulder internal rotation range of motion after 12 weeks (p < .001). No significant improvements were observed for eccentric shoulder external rotation strength and thoracic rotation range of motion following the exercise programme in the intervention group. The education and exercise-based programme improved knowledge regarding overuse injuries and the adolescence growth process and shoulder internal rotation range of motion among youth volleyball athletes.
