Abstract
This study investigates the impact of cross-training on skill development and injury prevention among ball badminton athletes in Mumbai. Conducted over six months, the research encompassed a sample of 120 athletes, split into a control group that followed traditional ball badminton training and an experimental group that incorporated cross-training regimens, including strength training, swimming, and yoga. Skill development was assessed using a standardized ball badminton skill test, while injury rates were monitored and recorded by a team of sports medicine professionals. Data analysis revealed significant improvement in the experimental group, with a 15% increase in skill test scores compared to a 5% increase in the control group. Furthermore, the experimental group exhibited a 40% reduction in injury incidence, particularly in overuse injuries like shoulder and knee issues, compared to the control group. Statistical significance was determined through p-values less than 0.05 for both skill improvement and injury reduction. These results suggest that cross-training not only enhances specific ball badminton skills but also plays a crucial role in injury prevention. The diversified training approach appears to mitigate the repetitive strain imposed by specialized sports training, thereby promoting overall athletic resilience and performance. The findings advocate for the integration of cross-training into the training regimes of ball badminton athletes to foster better skill development and reduce injury risks. Further research could explore the long-term impacts of such training adaptations on athlete performance and career longevity.
