At both grassroots and Major League level, soccer players' legs are both precious and injury-prone items. One false step, tiredness, lack of concentration or a rough tackle are all it takes to overstrain muscles and tendons, leading to week-long lay-offs from training and matches.
Physicians, physical therapists and coaches work together to keep these injury breaks as short as possible. This book describes modern methods of treatment for soccer-specific injuries and shows how training can be better structured to try to avoid risk factors in the future.
