<Abstract>
   Since the early 1990s, international institutions of Sport Sociology have advanced their studies of pain and injury in sport. Some of those studies aim at the sport network that forces athletes pain, injury and doping (H. Nixon U) and the professional sports as the labor environment (K. Young). On the other hand, there is a study by M. Messner and associates that focuses on endurance for pain and injury and violent play. These play a part of in the formation of identity as an athlete and especially as an expression of "masculinity."
