High Performance Sports

Problem: Sports provide health-related benefits but also confer risk of both accidental (unintentional) and non-accidental (intentional) injuries. Compared to non-disabled athletes, athletes with impairment (Para athletes) are particularly vulnerable to both unintentional and intentional injuries. D...
