While soccer is tough on the legs and feet, volleyball is arguably an even more challenging sport. Constant and persistent jumping and stretching is all part of the game. Players who can jump high obviously have an advantage in striking or blocking the ball. At the same time, the incidents for ankle injuries are also rather common. Jumping can result in ankles being twisted if the landing was not done securely. Hence, it is more common to see physical trainers immediately assess and treat ankle injuries on the volleyball court. Some star players seem to have the knack of avoiding foot injuries most of the time. However, even stars are human, as one of Brazil’s most popular volleyball stars Gabi Guimarães succumbs to painful ankle injuries on two rare occasions. Today’s story captures Gabi who was forced to remove her sneaker and sock in front of her fans. Lucky fans indeed!
