The purpose of this study was to investigate the incidence of sports injury and to provide basic data for injury prevention in elite squash players, survey was classified into injured part, number of injuries, training time, squash career length and the injury prevention during training. The collected data were analyzed by frequency analysis, independent t-test measures and χ² test using the SPSS program to verify differences in gender and age. College and adult squash players (CA) experienced statistically significant injury (p<.01) than middle and high school players (MH). Ankle and waist injuries had the highest rate in total groups (18.05%; 17.56%). The number of injury and training time of CA were significantly higher than MH (p<.001; p<.01) in players who experienced injury. However, the number of injuries had no significant correlation with training time. There was a statistically significant difference in career length between CA group and MH group (p<.001) in players who experienced injury. Injury prevention measures indicated that the warm up and cool down period had the highest rate (36.36%) in all total groups. These results suggest that older or more experienced squash players should be more careful in preventing injuries, and the development of specific warm-up and cool-down program and squash specific training program should be studied to prevent injuries for elite squash players.
