Load management to reduce injuries in elite youth football
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a training load management plan (based on the acute-to-chronic workload ratio) helps reduce time-loss injuries in Chinese elite youth footballers. You would be part of a team randomly assigned to the load management plan or usual training, and we track injuries over time.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 13 and 19 years old.
- You are a member of an elite youth football team (U15, U17, or U19).
