High-impact sports

High-impact sports are activities that involve significant physical contact, rapid movements, or collisions, which can put considerable stress on the body. Examples include football, hockey, rugby, and basketball. These sports often require players to quickly change direction, jump, or collide with opponents, increasing the risk of injuries such as sprains, fractures, or concussions. While they promote fitness and teamwork, participants should be aware of the physical demands and take appropriate precautions like proper equipment and training to minimize injury risk.
