Ankle sprains are among the most common injuries in sport. Soccer, volleyball, basketball, athletics and many other disciplines report a high incidence of ankle sprains in both professional and recreational athletes. 

Patellar tendinopathy, commonly known as Jumper's Knee, is one of the most frequent overuse injuries observed in sports involving repetitive jumping, sprinting and rapid changes of direction. Although the condition is strongly associated with volleyball and basketball, it is also common among soccer players, track and field athletes and many other sports that expose the knee extensor mechanism to high mechanical loads.

It is not uncommon to encounter volleyball players who do not report shoulder pain but present a noticeable hollow in the posterior aspect of the scapula. A more careful assessment often reveals reduced strength during shoulder external rotation, accompanied by compensatory activation of the ramaining rotator cuff muscle and, in some cases, even the trunk musculature.
