Sprains/strains were the most common injuries, with distinct age-related patterns observed, including a higher proportion of facial injuries in children and ankle injuries in adolescents. Most injuries were minor, reflecting a relatively safe injury profile. These findings highlight potential targets for injury prevention strategies, such as protective eyewear and neuromuscular training.IRB approval was not required for this study because only publicly available, de-identified data were used in the analysis.
