Injury incidence and characteristics in South African school first team rugby: A case studyKeywords: To determine the training habits, rugby-related exposure and injury risk within a population of South African high school first team rugby players. Abstract: Background: Despite its apparent popularity, participation in the sport of rugby union is accompanied by a significant risk of injury. Concerned parties have recently questioned whether this risk is acceptable within school populations. This is difficult to assess within the South African schools’ population as no recent longitudinal injury studies exist.
