Abstract
[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to determine a preventive strategy for ankle sprain injury through a questionnaire survey of coaches of junior high school basketball teams. [Participants and Methods] The questionnaire comprised questions concerning coaches’ characteristics, prevention-related content, and collaboration with medical staff. We distributed the questionnaire to 108 coaches, of which 48 (41.7%) responded. [Results] The results revealed that none of the participant coaches had ever collaborated with medical staff. [Conclusion] Additional effort from medical staff is needed to hold seminars and contact coaches of junior high school teams in order to conduct an injury prevention program.
