Other great coaching tips

 

Good soccer websites to buy video/DVD materials

  • www.soccervideos.com
  • www.Reedswain.com
  • Especially for Girls -http://www.aclprevent.com/index.htm
    Studies have shown that a female soccer player's risk of sustaining an ACL injury is two to eight times greater than her male counterpart. Subsequent studies have shown that adding neuromuscular and proprioceptive exercises to the training regimen can reduce the number of ACL injuries by two to four fold. The Santa Monica Orthopaedic and Sports Medicine Group has developed the PEP (Prevent injury, Enhance Performance) 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, and has funding support from the Amateur Athletic Foundation of Los Angeles (AAF). The program's main focus is educating players on strategies to avoid injury and includes specific exercises targeting problems as identified in previous research studies.

The club has purchased Girls Can Jump: An Athletic Training Program for the Knees. An instructional video from http://girlscanjump.com/. It is available at Silverscreen.
