Injury reporting in elite ladies Gaelic football and camogie: Perspectives of athlete support personnel
Injury underreporting is a significant issue among elite ladies' Gaelic games players, driven by personal, system-level, and environmental factors. Of critical importance for teams and organisations is to provide education for players and ASP on the importance and value of injury reporting to support early and appropriate intervention. Concurrently providing improved medical access will help to foster stronger, trust-based relationships between players and ASP, considered crucial for improving injury reporting practices.
