Conditions
Brief summary
The study has investigated the effects of adding change of direction (COD) training to the FIFA 11+ on lower extremity performance in soccer players. The investigators are interested in knee valgus angle during cutting which is typically suggested as a critical risk of anterior cruciate ligament injury. Peak knee valgus angle during cutting is expected to reduce immediately after adding COD training to the FIFA 11+.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Peak knee valgus angle | At pre-training and immediate post-training of prevention program | Knee valgus angle during cutting tests will be assessed before and after training for both groups. Two-dimensional analysis will be used to capture cutting movement and knee valgus angle will be extracted in the free software analysis. |
