The workshop addressed one of the most common injuries among athletes, the inverted ankle injury, which may appear minor on the surface but significantly affects physical ability and athletic performance, and may prevent a player from continuing training and competition. The workshop saw wide engagement from the audience through questions and discussions about the most widespread injuries and methods of prevention and treatment.

This event comes within the University of Shatrah's direction of strengthening the sports and health aspect and supporting awareness programmes that contribute to improving the safety of students and athletes and raising their awareness of common risks and how to deal with them.
