dc.description.abstract | Rugby union players can be involved in many tackles per game. However, little is known of the regular head loadingenvironment associated with tackling in rugby union. In particular, the magnitude and influencing factors for head kine-matics during the tackle are poorly understood. Accordingly, the goal of this study was to measure head motion of avisually unaware ball carrier during a real game tackle to the upper trunk with no direct head contact, and compare thekinematics with previously reported concussive events. Model-Based Image-Matching was utilised to measure ball carrierhead linear and angular velocities. Ball carrier componential maximum change in head angular velocities of 38.1, 20.6 and13.5 rad/s were measured for the head local X (coronal plane), Y (sagittal plane) and Z (transverse plane) axes respect-ively. The combination of a high legal tackle height configuration and visually unaware ball carrier can lead to kinematicssimilar to average values previously reported for concussive direct head impacts. | en_US |
