The Today Show had a segment on this topic yesterday, Feb. 28.

I'm biased because I've worked directly with Dr. Ganley in the past. His insight and research are amazing.

I have to admit that I hear of knee injury after knee injury from coaches whom I've interviewed in the past. Tearing an ACL is almost commonplace these days.
Injury prevention is key, so please, do what you can to keep your child injury-free...
