The study was carried out to investigate the factors affecting risk management in Senior
High School in the Ga South District of the Greater Accra region. The study was carried
out to investigate the factors affecting risk management in the teaching and learning of
volley ball in Senior High Schools in the Ga South District of the Greater Accra Region.
In using simple random sampling technique, the researcher considered gender as a
factor. Therefore, the sample size has equal number of boys and equal number of girls
specifically fifty boys and fifty girls. Ten senior high schools were randomly selected
for the study. Random sampling technique was used to select 10 students from ten
schools. The major instrument used for the study was a 15 item questionnaire whose
information was in line with the research objectives. The research revealed that higher
levels of injury were associated with lower levels of risk management practices and
procedures. In addition, factors such as lack of education, use of inappropriate
protective equipment, use of unsuitable facilities and the absence of proper supervision
affect the risk management in volleyball activities. Resultant injuries experienced by
respondents during volleyball activities were ankle sprains, back pain, fractures,
shoulder injuries, finger injuries, knee injuries, concussions and stress injuries. It is
recommended that schools are to provide proper facilities and safety gear such ask knee
pads, volleyball shoes, ankle braces and socks for volleyball players to use in order to
prevent injuries |
