Football and handball, as popular team sports, require great physical efforts from the athletes, which often lead to various sports injuries. Increasing demands, goals and more difficult training processes put athletes at risk, as well as recreationists who regularly engage in some kind of activity for various inflammations, ruptures, strains and sprains. The most common injuries that occur in sports such as handball and football are injuries to the lower extremities such as: knee injuries, hamstring muscle injuries, ankle and tendon injuries. In addition to various injuries that are on the rise, one of them is the Achilles tendon injury. As the strongest and thickest tendon in the human body, it is subject to various inflammations, partial and complete ruptures that cause accumulated stress on the tendon. Severe pain, swelling and a feeling of stiffness are the symptoms experienced by an injured person in the event of a tendon rupture. After diagnosing the injuries and deciding on the treatment procedure, rehabilitation takes place individually for each athlete. Each phase of rehabilitation has its criteria for transition to the next phase, and after the same rehabilitation and the athlete's return to the field, it is necessary to carry out exercises that were also used in rehabilitation so that the injury does not recur. In order to reduce the possibility of injuries, coaches should provide athletes with an adequate prevention plan and program with exercises that focus on at-risk groups of muscles and joints. A quality prevention program consists of warm-up, proprioception, plyometrics, stability and mobility, which is carried out in the introductory parts of the training, depending on the current needs of the athlete.
