ACL injuries have sidelined too many NWUnited players.  Some permanently.  ACL injuries are preventable and saving just one player from having to undergo knee surgery is worth investiqating and adopting a proven program to reduce frequency of that injury. And the recommended ACL program is a good initial activity for any practice.

All parents and players must read and sign a “Concussion Information Sheet” in order to participate in the Washington Youth Soccer.  You can confirm that you have read the form on-line at www.skvysa.org.  Go to “Member Log-in”, enter your username and password, and read the form.  In addition, forms are available here:  English Version.  Spanish Version.  For more information email Eric Magnuson

Mmanagers should carry signed copies of the Concussion Information Sheet, along with their signed “consent to treat” forms, to every game and practice.

Thanks

Please read this article on the ByteSize Soccer web site.  A great reminder of appropriate and inappropriate sideline behavior that will help make the game enjoyable for all.

Here is a strengthening and stretching program to reduce ACL tears. It has had great results in controlled research trials. The program was highlighted in the August issue of Play-On. The risk of ACL tears is higher in girls than in boys. Take a look here.
