- W785532936 abstract "The purpose of this project was to explore the injury experiences of female amateurBritish rowers located within a symbolic interactionist framework. The study intended toascertain the major injury-risk factors and inform future practice. This follows the logicof previous researchers who have identified a culture of risk in sporting subcultures(Nixon, 1992) and have presented evidence of injuries related to participation in rowing(Bernstein, 1995; Edgar, 1999). A typology is presented identifying the key risk factorsin rowing. A questionnaire was administered to rowers during the 1997 regatta season.The themes identified from this questionnaire were explored further through a period ofparticipant observation in two rowing clubs, and semi-structured interviews conductedwith members of both clubs and their coaches. The findings identified that it jury shouldbe considered as part of a broader experience of illness in sport. The participants in thestudy had limited recognition of their vulnerability to illness and injury as a result oftheir involvement in rowing. The major risk factors appeared to be the high level ofcommitment expected of the rowers, pressures from significant others within thesubculture (in particular the coaches), and inadequate medical support for amateurathletes. Illness and injury are considered to be embodied and emotional experiences,affecting the athlete's body project (Shilling, 1993). The stigma of such fatal flaws(Goffman, 1969; Sparkes, 1996) has the potential to disrupt the individual's sense of selfas athlete andlor as female, which occasionally led to compensatory behaviour. It issuggested that coaching practice needs to be more humanistic than performanceorientedFurthermore, non-orthodox, complementary health care is recommended tooffer women a more supportive environment for taking control of their own medicalpractice. Finally, it is believed that there is a need for greater dialogue betweensociologists of sport and other sport scientists and medical professionals in order todevelop a more holistic approach to working with sports participants." @default.
