title: [Pattern of injuries at a Danish sports college].
abstract: A batch of college students was followed with the object of describing the pattern of athletic injuries. Men sustained the greatest number of acute injuries while no sex difference was observed in the number of stress injuries. The majority of injuries occurred in connection with gymnastics but, when all ball games are considered together, ball game injuries exceeded the gymnastic injuries in number. This difference is further increased when the fact that, in this college, twice as much time is spent on gymnastics as on ball games, is taken into consideration.
