Newswise With more young people participating in organized sports than
ever before, its not surprising that the number of pediatric sports
injuries is rising. Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries of the knee
are particularly common among athletes ages 15 to 18, with a higher
incidence among young female athletes.
<snip>
Chiaia and de Mille offer the following tips for coaches and trainers to
help prevent ACL injuries in young athletes:
Understand the anatomy of the knee, what the ACL is, and how the body
works. This will help in heightening awareness of what causes ACL injuries
and who is at risk for them.
Teach your athletes how to move with good alignment so that the knees are
protected. This can be achieved by developing body awareness (brain-body
connection), strength and balance to support both knees and ankles.
Make sure athletes are jumping, landing, stopping and moving with their
knees directly over their feet. Do not let the knees collapse inward.
Work with athletes to develop strength in the hips, thighs and core.
These are important in helping to keep knees in the proper position when
practicing or in competition.
