| Abstract | Ankle sprains are the most common types of leg injuries and have a high incidence rate among team sport athletes, especially in basketball. Ankle sprains can be caused by both external and internal factors. Therefore, reducing the risk factors for ankle sprains is crucial to consider in order to enhance athlete’s performance to the maximum capacity.Objective:To study the relationship between factors associated with the occurrence of ankle sprains in basketball athl etes at the Mahasarakham Campus of the National Sports University.Methodology:20 basketball athletes; they are divided into 7 female and 13 male athletes, participated in this study. They completed a general information and injury questionnaire. Following this, tests were conducted to assess the strength of the ankle-twisting muscles, the stability of the ankle during movement, the range of motion of the ankle, and the flexibility of the muscles.Results:Athletes with a history of more than two recurrent ankle sprains within one year showed a statistically significant high positive correlation with the occurrence of ankle sprains (r=0.849, p<0.001). Additionally, a history of various types of ankle injuries was more significantly correlated with the occurrence of ankle sprains than injuries to the other body parts. This very high positive correlation was statistically significant (r=0.899, p<0.001). Conversely, dorsiflexion of the ankle showed a statistically significant, moderately negative correlation with the occurrence of ankle sprains (r=0.510 p<0.025). This indicates that limited ankle dorsiflexion is associated with an increased likelihood of ankle sprains. Conclusion:Factors that have a high to very high positive correlation with the occurrence of ankle sprains include having a history of more than two recurrent ankle sprains, previous ankle injuries, and the nature of the injury being a sprain. The factor with a moderately negative correlation with the occurrence of ankle sprains is limited ankle dorsiflexion.The result of this study may be useful forbasketball players or coachesto plan a practice program and avoid an injury during training and competition. |
