Abstract
Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is caused when the neck of the femur, due to limited internal rotation, biomechanically contacts the
pelvis in an atypical manner. The purpose of this study was to investigate if football players at the collegiate level have a higher incidence of FAI than other sports and if specific football positions are more affected.
