Adherence
A structured neuromuscular training program significantly reduces the risk of acute non-contact leg injuries in female floorball players.
If you are a female floorball player, incorporate a 20-30 minute neuromuscular training session before your regular practice 2-3 times a week. Focus on balance, body control, and proper technique for sports-specific movements. This simple addition can significantly lower your risk of non-contact leg injuries like ankle sprains and knee ligament issues.
A neuromuscular training programme was effective in preventing acute non-contact injuries of the legs in female floorball players.
Why this rating
Cluster randomized controlled trial with high consent rate (86%) and low dropout (5%), though blinding of participants/coaches was not possible.
