[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Besides resting, is there any exercise that would help prevent physical injuries (ACL, etc.)? While it is said for kids to play multiple sports and not focus on one sport due to injury. If kid plays soccer, and let’s say lacrosse (or other running/agility type of sport), he/she would still get overuse injury too, right? [/quote] Yes, adding a 2nd sport with similar physical demands to the primary sport, without cutting back on the primary sport, is only going to increase the risk of injury even more. Playing high school soccer in addition to club soccer (rather than instead of) is insanity. To answer your question, there are 2 programs which have been proven to reduce the incidence of ACL injuries.
