A clear finding: effective injury prevention requires collaboration among all stakeholders. Understanding different perspectives is important for successful implementation. 🤝

Coaches, health staff, and administrators prioritized coach knowledge and education as essential for preventing injuries. Meanwhile, players focused on managing training loads and practical setups.

We used a mixed-method concept mapping approach, gathering insights from 224 participants. Stakeholders rated facilitators based on their importance and feasibility. Key factors included federation strategies, coach education, and player load management. 📊
