This study aims to analyze the level of understanding of injury management among members of the Women's Football UKM at STKIP Pasundan. A quantitative approach with a descriptive survey design was used. Data were collected through a closed-ended questionnaire distributed to 20 active athletes. The results showed that respondents’ understanding was categorized as "good" (30%), "fair" (55%), and "poor" (15%), with a mean score of 38.80 and standard deviation of 11.37. The understanding of acute injuries was higher (mean = 9.20) than chronic injuries (mean = 7.85). These findings emphasize the need for enhanced education and practical training in injury management for student athletes.
