Table 2

Incidence rate ratios by injury stratification (all injury, targeted injury) based on Poisson regression analysis adjusted for cluster and playing level

	Arm	Clubs (n)	Player match-hours	Injuries/days lost count	Rate per 1000 player match-hours (90% CI)	RR (90% CI)	Magnitude-based inference (beneficial/trivial/harmful) (%)
Overall Injury
