Abstract

ABSTRACT.The effectiveness of motor tests to reduce the injuries of athletes who are new to wrestling was analyzed. Wrestling is very popular in Turkey. It has been found out that in the initial learning stages of wrestling, injuries are quite common. In the current study, the use of an initial fitness test protocol screening can reduce the injury rate in beginning wrestlers. Specifically, candidate athletes who could score 40 points or higher on the test battery are less likely to be injured. The implementation of this initial fitness screening can be an important injury prevention practice in youth wrestling.
