The harsh reality is that female athletes are more at risk for ACL injuries.  Soccer athletes are the MOST at risk group.  More important to note, however, is that a majority of these occurrences are PREVENTABLE.   Functional strength, balance/proprioception, and landing/running mechanics need to be developed and enhanced.   River City Sports Performance specializes in sport-specific training that addresses the risk factors for these and other injuries.   Want to know more about injury prevention and our programming?  Contact us today.
