About this trial

This study aims to address the rising incidence of ACL injuries, particularly among adolescents, by developing and implementing a comprehensive prevention program based on the evidence-based "ACL Prevention for ALL" framework recommended by ESSKA-ESMA. The project focuses on muscle strengthening, flexibility, coordination, proper movement techniques, and a multidisciplinary approach involving coaches, physiotherapists, and physicians. Through targeted exercise modules, education, and dynamic evaluation-including 2D motion analysis-the study seeks to reduce ACL injuries, enhance movement safety, and enable individualized training plans by identifying and correcting muscle and biomechanical imbalances.
