@JodieDakic @HelenaFrawley @jeanhaysmith @ProfJillCook @KuanYin_Lin Well done @JodieDakic! Such important work!

[Jess Cunningham @_jesscunningham]

What a wild ride it’s been since POP’s release 1 year ago. So thank you to everyone around the world who has purchase a copy, or recommended it to a friend or ACL client. And thank you to all of the amazing athletes involved who were so generous in sharing their ACL stories. 🙏

[Jess Cunningham @_jesscunningham]

There are also kids/youth versions of the evidence based ACL (and lower limb) injury prevention programs. And wouldn’t it be amazing if these were implemented by all junior sports teams/clubs/schools!

Who do you know in your community that needs to be aware of these?!

[Jess Cunningham @_jesscunningham]

These ACL prevention programs are not only backed by research, but are achievable and realistic to implement through all levels and ages of sport.

WE JUST NEED EVERYONE TO KNOW ABOUT THEM!

So please share this to anyone you know in your community who is involved in sport.

[Jess Cunningham @_jesscunningham]

@FigtreePhysio And shout the solutions loud!!

[Jess Cunningham @_jesscunningham]

@FigtreePhysio Absolutely! Get the equity right… and then also do the prevention programs 💪

[Jess Cunningham @_jesscunningham]

Calling all friends in mainstream media…
The World Cup is a great time to highlight the ACL injury problem, don’t get me wrong, but wouldn’t it be great if the media headlines also shouted to the highly effective evidence based ACL injury prevention programs?

Thank you @ACSEP_ for allowing me to speak today at the Annual Scientific Conference in Adelaide on the themes that emerged from the athletes’ stories in POP #theACLbook.

A tough act to follow stepping up to the microphone after @DrJohnOrchard and Dr Tom Cross!
