Injury prevention

Preventing injuries is key to keeping athletes healthy and performing at their best. The IFSC has developed an Injury Registry, with standardized recording sheets used during competitions, to track and analyse injuries across events. Collecting this data helps identify patterns, understand risk factors, and guide training, equipment, and competition safety measures. By using evidence-based insights, the IFSC aims to support athletes, coaches, and medical staff in reducing injury risk and promoting long-term athlete wellbeing.
