ACL Injury Prevention ACL Injury Prevention Program
The ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) Injury Prevention Program is a highly specific 15-minute training session that replaces the traditional warm-up. It was developed by a team of physicians, physical therapists, athletic trainers and coaches. The program goal is to teach players strategies to avoid injury by:

Avoiding vulnerable positions
Increasing flexibility
Increasing strength
Including plyometric exercises in training
Increasing proprioception

Optimally the program should be performed at least 2-3 times per week during the season.
This program consists of a warm-up, stretching, strengthening, plyometrics, and sport specific agility training. It is important to use proper technique during jumping moves (jump straight up and down jumps without excessive side-to-side movement), and aim for soft landings.

A high school athlete jumps to get the ball, lands and blows out a knee. And most of that time those athletes are girls. Girls are four to six times more likely to suffer a certain kind of knee injury than boys. And that's why sports medicine specialists at Mayo Clinic developed a camp aimed at preventing knee injuries for young female athletes.
