Injury Prevention: We incorporate a program for injury prevention in girls into our practice regimen. Nadir has been trained in California where much of the current research on injury prevention has been taking place and where a large recent study was completed. We practice a lot, but we also work on training them in good form, strenghtening and stretching to minimize injury. We've also had consulting on this subject from a professor who specializes in this field since U9.
Click on the link above (the title) to see a letter from Wendy LeBolt, PhD on injury prevention. It includes and invitation for coaches and players go participate in additional training on injury prevention. Injury prevention is very important to us and we've had Wendy design exercises and drills into our "curriculum" since U9 to strengthen muscles and emphasize form that has been shown, through study, to reduce the incidence of injury. We also have Wendy visit us periodically to check form and play the many fun and interesting games that she brings us.
