This subject has came up several times. Found a simple program. Google Santa Monica Orthopaedic and Sports Medicine Group - PEP program. Very simple and straight forward. No time like the present to prevent injuries.

ACL Injury Prevention Program


The PEP program, designed for the United States Soccer Federation, is aimed at decreasing the risk of catastrophic knee injuries, such as anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears. The program is designed to be performed by athletes as part of a preseason and in-season maintenance program. MUSC Sports Medicine offers a monthly training session, led by physical therapists and trainers with dedicated experience to the PEP program and soccer injuries. The session will teach athletes the exercises and drills to perform throughout the year. If you would like an MUSC Sports Medicine physical therapist or athletic trainer come to teach the program to your team, please contact Renee Garrison at 266-1540.

I am trying to entice them to come out of the low country to the Upstate. If they come, I will inform the local clubs, so all can benefit. The search I posted was just a neat package for those who can not entice someone to help them. Thanks for the info.
