When comparing gender across sports, girls were more likely to sustain an overuse injury than boys (soccer, injury rate ratio [IRR]: 1.37, 95% CI = 1.20\u20131.57; basketball, IRR: 1.82, 95% CI = 1.56\u20132.14; baseball\/softball, IRR: 1.21, 95% CI = 1.04\u20131.41). Most overuse injuries in soccer and basketball for both genders occurred to a lower extremity (soccer: 83.9% [175\u2009369\/209\u2009071] for boys, 90.0% [243\u2009879\/271\u2009092] for girls; basketball: 77.0% [59\u2009239\/76\u2009884] for boys, 80.5% [81\u2009826\/101\u2009709] for girls), whereas most overuse injuries in baseball and softball were to an upper extremity (72.5% [81\u2009363\/112\u2009213] for boys, 53.7% [73\u2009557\/136\u2009990] for girls). For boys\u2019 baseball, pitching (43.5% [47\u2009007\/107\u2009984]) was the most common activity associated with an overuse injury, which differed from the most common activity of throwing (31.7%
