Abstract
Injuries can be an unfortunate consequence of sports participation. As the number of individuals who participate in physical activity increases, so too will the number of injuries occurring due to exercise (van Mechelen, 1997). In addition to being an enormous public health issue, injuries continue to usurp limited financial healthcare resources (Finch, 2012).
