If it’s a survey of 5,732 British people I’d question the sample size that allows them to say 63% have been injured playing American Football or Ice Hockey (although it just says hockey, which in the UK would mean field hockey but the image looks like an ice hockey stick and puck).

Golf + “someone else’s carelessness” is a very nice way of saying “some goofball will shoot into you”

Lol golf is more dangerous than rugby because the old boys down the club put their back out regularly. Got it.

How tf is baseball not anywhere on this list and how the hell are 1/3 of you getting injured playing snooker/pool? You Brits are softer than I thought.

What counts as an injury? I mean I’ve definitely pulled some muscles on the range before. Technically an injury.

More injuries in football than rugby is 100% bollocks I’m afraid.
Maybe the injuries are self reported?

I think golf ranks where it does because you play it during a long period of your life while usually football is more of a boyhood pastime.

Darts? Of course all the elbow injuries. Pints are heavy

Baseball? I had a dr tell me there are more injuries from any other sport…simply because more kids play baseball than anything else.
