Abstract
Introduction: Training and match loads are important for ensuring optimal performance outcomes and achievements of footballers and also have an impact on injury and illness amongst the players. There had been no prospective study of the training/playing loads of first year Australian Football League (AFL) players and associated influence on injury rates. AFL clubs are faced with consistent physical development/musculoskeletal management issues with 1st-year players into the AFL system. The aim was to measure the training and match loads and determine the relationship between loads and injury risk in the first year AFL football players and then compare this to mature 3+ years AFL players.
