The health and welfare of our female athletes at LA Premier FC is a high priority of our Directors. Ensuring players are trained correctly to reduce the risk of injury is a major concern of coaches across the country. We are committed to offering our female athletes the opportunity to seek professional training in ACL prevention.
“Female Athlete Focus” (FAF) - ACL Prevent Training
The FAF training programs offer intense sports specific strength and conditioning programs designed specifically for our female athletes. What sets our “FAF” Training Programs apart from many other training programs is our program’s concentration on the knee complex. The FAF Training Programs implement an intense circuit training design that is geared toward improving knee stability all while maintaining a strong focus on all strength and conditioning components of the team’s sport.
