Bakgrund/problemformulering Knäskador inom handbollen är utbredda och allmänt kända. Kvinnliga handbollsspelare har visat sig ha en högre risk för långvariga knäskadeproblem. Knäskador inom handboll är beforskat utifrån incidens och även vilken typ av träning som är fördelaktig för att förebygga skador. Däremot har inga studier kring vad handbollstränare har för upplevelser och erfarenheter kring knäskadeförebyggande träning gjorts. Syfte Syftet med studien är att undersöka och kartlägga upplevelser och erfarenheter hos handbollstränare för flickor i 10–19 år angående knäskadeförebyggande träning. Design och metod Kvalitativ explorativ design. Fem semistrukturerade intervjuer med intervjuguide. Till databearbetning användes kvalitativ innehållsanalys Resultat Tränarna såg knäskadeförebyggande träning som en viktig del i träningen. Det förekom variationer i upplägg och innehåll. Flertalet faktorer kring skadeprevention belystes som exempelvis resurser, kompetens och motivation hos spelarna att delta i knäskadeförebyggande träning. Slutsats Bland de faktorer som påverkar möjligheten till optimal skadeförebyggande träning är motivation hos unga spelare en av de större. Det kan tänkas att om tränarna utbildas inom områdena beteende och motivation och hur dessa påverkar varandra, att den skadeförebyggande träningen får än större effekt. / Background Knee injury within handball are well heard of. Female handball players have shown a greater risk developing long term knee injury.

Thesis title: Effect of targeted training of the lower scapular fixators on the shoulder girdle function of rugby players The concept of the problem: Rugby is one of the toughest ball sports and there is no shortage of injuries. In addition, injuries in the shoulder area are among the most common and any possibility of reducing these injuries is beneficial. There is not much time left for compensation and targeted intervention; moreover, it is not usually led by physiotherapists but by fitness coaches and only in larger clubs. The consequence is a muscle imbalance in the shoulder girdle, which can result in the so-called scapular dyskinesis. This is turn affects the function and stability of the shoulder joint not only by the overhead athletes. It is possible to influence scapular dyskinesis in various ways. One of them is the inclusion of targeted training of lower scapular fixators into fitness training and thus their stability is improved. Objectives: The main aim of this thesis is to verify whether rugby players with painful shoulder have sufficiently scapular fixation based on kinesiological and biomechanical knowledge. Another aim of this thesis is to create such an exercise unit that would ensure the correct activity of the lower scapular fixators and verify this by measurement. The final...
