Abstract
This commentary describes a program developed to help reduce the incidence of anterior cruciate ligament injuries in soccer players. The basic principles underlying the injury prevention protocol are described with respect to the proprioceptive control mechanisms at the knee joint. This is followed by a detailed description of the program.Keywords
