The results found were: among the four modalities, which present the highest volume of athletes attended in the Taekwondo with a total of 22 athletes, with a mean number of sessions of 20.81 (SD = 13.84). A mean age of 18 years (n = 18; SD = 3.19) and the main regions affected by injuries were knee, ankle and thigh. No Athletics were attended 15 athletes, with an average of 17.46 attendance sessions.
