Objective: The present study aimed to examine the relationship between components of competitive anxiety and trait anxiety with the injury rates of futsal players currently competing in the Iranian National Futsal Premier League.
Methods: A convenience sampling method was employed, selecting 40 elite futsal players who were accessible and willing to participate (Mean age: 23.6 ± 3.46 years; Mean experience: 3 ±1.58 years). Data were collected using an injury checklist, the Competitive State Anxiety Inventory-2 (CSAI-2), and Spielberg’s Trait Anxiety Questionnaire. Data analysis was performed using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov (K-S) test, Pearson correlation coefficient, and the Chi-square test.
Results: The results indicated a significant positive correlation between somatic anxiety and injury rate (P = 0.001). Furthermore, among the characteristics of anxiety, only cognitive anxiety demonstrated a significant positive correlation with the rate of injury (P = 0.047). Although a negative relationship was observed between self-confidence and injury rates, this correlation was not statistically significant. Regarding injury distribution, 87.03% of injuries occurred in the lower limbs, primarily affecting the knees (29.26%) and thighs (24.39%).
Conclusion: The findings suggest that psychological factors are increasingly critical in sports medicine; specifically, identifying these psychological risk factors may help in preventing physical injuries.1 In this context, coaches and medical staff can identify vulnerable athletes by recognizing psychological risk factors, thereby preventing injuries and reducing athletes' time away from competition
