Abstract

V originále

The purpose of this study was to assess the occurrence of injuries at judo competitions held in the Czech Republic in the men's category and the factors affecting them. The information collected included the most common injuries, the degree of technical maturity, age of athletes, the length of active sports activities, weight category, ranked matches and when the injury occurred especially in which minute it happened. The overall injury rate was monitored during 1 year at judo events held in the Czech Republic under the auspices of the Czech Union of Judo. Judo is an individual sport that requires more than physical preparation, but also technical skills and mental readiness of the athlete. These three ingredients are suggested to be related to the mechanism of injury.
