Abstract
Introduction: One of the preventing injuries methods is recognizing common injuries in sports and causative factors of injury. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence and mechanism of injury in professional beach soccer players in Yazd province.
Methods: The present study is a survey-descriptive research that was conducted as a field study. Number of 40 players currently in the premier league country were selected as samples. For collecting information, the modified injury report questionnaire by Fuller et al. (2006) was used. Data were analyzed by using chi-square test at a significance level P < 0.05.
Results: The results showed that the most common injuries were in lower extremities (%69.84) and in terms of injury severity, 31.75% were sever injury, and for type of injuries, strain was the most of the injuries occurred (%33.33). The amount of injury during the match (60.26%) was higher than the time of training (39.68%). The degree of contact injuries 73.02% was significantly higher than non-contact injuries 26.98% (p <0.05).
Conclusion: Most of the injuries in this sport are caused by lack of the shoes and guards on the legs and feet, and then on the knee. Contact of players is one of the main sources of injury in beach soccer, which is likely to be effective in preventing injury by changing training, implementing proper techniques, and improving performance factors by using injuries preventive programs.

Abstract
Introduction: Muscle weakness and balance problems are limiting factors in Multiple sclerosis patients that can be improved due to physical activity. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of 8 weeks of aerobic exercise on balance function and Physiological Cost Index in patients with MS in Yazd city in 1394.
Methods: This quasi-experimental study was conducted in two stages: pretest and post-test. The subjects were selected by targeted and available sampling and randomly divided into training and control groups that included 30 patients (15 in the experimental group and 15 in the control group). The subjects were randomly divided into two groups of experimental and control. Subjects in the experimental group participated in an aerobic exercise program for eight weeks, three days a week, each session of 60-90 minutes with an intensity of 50-70% of maximum heart rate. For statistical analysis we used descriptive statistics such as mean, standard deviation, and the Shapiro-Wilk test used to measure the normality of the data, independent t-test and the covariance (ANCOVA). The significance level of the tests was p < 0.05 by using the SPSS-25 software.
Results: ANCOVA results revealed that the selected aerobic training significantly increased both static balance (p = 0.007) and dynamic balance (p = 0.001). Moreover, aerobic training positively influenced the physiological cost index (P = 0.001.
Conclusion: aerobic exercise can improve both static and dynamic balance and increase the Physiological Cost Index in M.S patients. Therefore, these exercises are recommended for patients with MS.
