Abstract

The objective was to examine the efficacy of the Get aHEAD Safely in Soccer™ intervention on head impact kinematics and neck strength in female youth soccer players. The control group (CG) consisted of 13 players (age: 11.0 ± 0.4 yrs), while the experimental group (EG) consisted of 14 players (age: 10.6 ± 0.5 yrs). Head impact kinematics included peak linear acceleration (PLA), peak rotational acceleration (PRA), and peak rotational velocity (PRV). Pre- and post-season measures included strength measures of neck/torso flexion (NF/TF) and extension (NE/TE). Data were analysed using a multilevel linear model and ANOVA techniques. No differences in PLA, PRA, or PRV were observed between groups. The EG showed significant improvement in NF strength while the CG showed significant improvement in NE strength. Both groups significantly improved in TF pre- to post-season. The foundational strength components of the Get aHEAD Safely in Soccer program appear to show a benefit in youth soccer players beginning to learn the skill of purposeful heading.

研究 Get aHEAD Safely in Soccer™ 计划对青少年女子足球运动员头部撞击运动学和颈部力量的影响。

目的是研究 Get aHEAD Safely in Soccer™ 干预疗法对青少年女子足球运动员头部撞击运动学和颈部力量的影响。对照组（CG）包括 13 名球员（年龄：11.0 ± 0.4 岁），实验组（EG）包括 14 名球员（年龄：10.6 ± 0.5 岁）。头部撞击运动学包括峰值线性加速度（PLA）、峰值旋转加速度（PRA）和峰值旋转速度（PRV）。赛季前和赛季后的测量包括颈部/躯干屈伸（NF/TF）和伸展（NE/TE）的力量测量。数据采用多层次线性模型和方差分析技术进行分析。各组之间的 PLA、PRA 或 PRV 均无差异。EG 组在 NF 力量方面有明显改善，而 CG 组在 NE 力量方面有明显改善。两组的 TF 从赛季前到赛季后都有明显改善。Get aHEAD Safely in Soccer（安全地踢足球）计划中的基础力量部分似乎对刚开始学习有目的头球技能的青少年足球运动员有好处。
