NCAA Injury Surveillance System National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Injury Surveillance System (ISS) was developed in 1982 to provide current and reliable data on injury trends in intercollegiate athletics. Injury and exposure data are collected yearly from a representative sample of NCAA member institutions and the resulting data summaries are reviewed by the NCAA Committee on Competitive Safeguards and Medical Aspects of Sports. The committee’s goal continues to reduce injury rates through suggested changes in rules, protective equipment or coaching techniques based on data provided by the ISS.
