Summary

This study tests whether the FIFA 11+ warm-up program, a 20-minute routine of running, strength, balance, and agility drills, can lower injury risk in male youth amateur soccer players aged 15 to 18. Over eight weeks, players either do the FIFA 11+ warm-up before training or continue their usual warm-up. Researchers track injury risk scores, physical performance, and actual injuries to see if the program helps keep players safer.

Active substance
FIFA 11+ Neuromuscular Warm-Up Program
What this could lead to
If effective, this warm-up could become a standard tool to lower injury rates in youth soccer, keeping more players healthy and active.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early study with only 44 players, so results may not apply to all youth soccer settings. The warm-up requires supervision and commitment, which may limit real-world use.
