Is it possible to avoid soccer injuries? The facetious answer would be Yes; if you don't play the game then you cannot get injured! Well that's no any good for you, as a committed player.

The best you can do is to manage the risk, and lower the effect of any injury. Anyone who plays the game is going to be prone to injury, remember that you are involved in a physical, contact sport and minor injuries are an everyday aspect. Knocks and scrapes can be picked up during training as well as on match days. Muscle strains can also occur.

So, what practical things can you do to reduce the risks?

• Warm up exercises before any match or training session are essential to gently stretch muscles before the full assault of a high power workout.
• Warm down exercises are just as important, and should be performed after each session.
• Wear the correct footwear, properly fitting boots will offer protection and support to the feet.
• Shin pads to protect the vulnerable area of the lower leg by taking the impact of a kick and spreading out the force.
• Play and train on surfaces that are relatively flat and even, without dips, bumps and potholes or other trip hazards.
• Gum shields, or mouth guards, should be considered, and should be regarded as essential for younger players.

Taking part in any form of sport can lead to injuries, resulting in you possibly having to miss out on training and playing matches for several days, weeks or even months at a time. Then of course you have the problem of regaining your place in the team while still getting over the after effects of the injury.

The best way that you can handle the risks and minimise the effects is to get yourself to the peek of physical fitness. That way you will be able to shrug off most injuries, and significantly reduce the time needed to recover. You can get back to training much sooner, regain your place in the team quicker, and therefore loose less ground over your colleagues.

The very best way of keeping and improving your levels of fitness, strength, stamina and endurance is to undertake a carefully structured and proven continuous soccer-conditioning program. Not only will this assist you in avoiding and overcoming any injuries, but it will also help you to become a better, stronger and faster soccer player.

The player in the best physical condition will prevail!
