Women participating in high risk sports, such as soccer are 3-8 times more likely to suffer a non-contact ACL injury compared to men playing the same sport.  Despite all of the attention given to ACL injuries in the media and in research, the risk of ACL tears for female soccer players has remained the same over the past 13 years.

Risk factors proposed to be associated with non-contact ACL injuries include:
        Environmental risk factors
        Anatomical risk factors
        Hormonal risk factors
        Biomechanical risk factors

The most common strategies used in ACL injury prevention programs include:
        Overall body control, stability and balance
        Decreasing landing forces
        Improving faulty landing mechanics
        Maintaining proper knee alignment when running, jumping and changing directions
        Using a multiple-step stop when changing directions
        General strength exercises

We developed the G.O.A.L.S. Training Series by integrating all of the current scientific information available and created a program that has proven highly successful. After implementing the G.O.A.L.S. Training Series program for 5 years with over 200 female soccer players between 11-19 years or age there were only 2 non-contact ACL injuries
