Abstract
Risk factors that may increase injury risk in male youth soccer players have been outlined previously, including growth and maturation, movement skill, fatigue, and previous injury. practitioners should use suitable assessment and monitoring tools that can be used to systematically screen athletes for these risk factors to assist in the early identification of high-risk athletes. The key factors for effective implementation have been reviewed in this manuscript.
