SYSTEMATIC REVIEW Injuries in Field Hockey Players: A Systematic Review Saulo Delfino Barboza1 • Corey Joseph2 • Joske Nauta1 • Willem van Mechelen1,3,4,5 • Evert Verhagen1,2,4 Published online: 3 January 2018 The Author(s) 2018. Our objective was to describe the rate and severity of injuries in field hockey and investigate their characteristics. During major international hockey tournaments in 2013, an average of 29.1 injuries per 1000 match‐hours and 48.3 injuries per 1000 match‐hours were registered in women and men, respectively. Players aged between 10 and 19 years account for 50% of all Victorian hospital emergency department presentations for hockey injuries.
