Common injuries at Northwest
I talked to Kelly a trainer at northwest last week about some of the most common injuries that certain sports run into. She started of saying how certain sports go through different "phases." She noticed last year that the cross country team had a problem with IT bands while volleyball had ankle issues. These trends only last a year before going away. there is no known cause other then the training that the athletes go through is at the same time. There are common injuries that every sport is familiar with. For football most of the injuries are ankle and shoulder related. For volleyball its just the shoulder and sometimes the hip. Running is shin splints and IT bands. Soccer has ankle and quadricep issues. These sports have these same issues every year, of course along with a few other injuries.
