Preventing ACL Injuries in Soccer: FIFA 11+ Warm-Up Program

I had the opportunity on the weekend to be trained in the FIFA 11+ warm-up program for soccer to reduce knee and ACL injuries at the Hershey Centre in Mississauga. I joined fellow chiropractors and soccer coaches as this event was sponsored by the North Mississauga Soccer Club and supported by the Canadian Academy of Sport and Exercise Medicine (CASEM). 

The program was developed by an international group of experts, and its effectiveness has been proven in a scientific study. Teams that performed the “FIFA 11+ ” at least twice a week had 30-50% fewer injured players.

The program should be performed, as a standard warm-up, at the start of each training session at least twice a week, and it takes around 20 minutes to complete. Prior to matches, only the running exercises (parts 1 and 3) should be performed.

If you have any questions regarding this program or need assistance implementing these exercises for your team, please contact me at drsteph@drstephanisko.com
