Sport safety  print friendly

Sport is healthy, but certainly holds a risk of injury. Injuries related to sports activities accounts for 18% of all home and leisure injuries that need medical treatment in hospitals. Almost 5,2 million cases a year. The focus of the Sport Safety Task Force is on improving of knowledge on the prevention of acute and overuse sports injuries in European countries. The main aim is a reduction in the number and/or the severity of injuries. The promotion of physical exercise and injury prevention is seen by us as two complementary and not competitive health strategies.
