Exercise program for prevention of groin pain in football players: a cluster-randomized trial
Scandinavian Journal of Medicine and Science in Sports, 10/23/09

Holmich P et al. – Groin injuries cause major problems in sports and particularly in football. Exercise is effective in treating adductor–related groin pain, but no trials have been published regarding the specific prevention of groin pain or prevention specifically targeting overuse injuries in sport using exercise programs. The authors performed a cluster–randomized trial including 55 football clubs representing 1211 players...The risk of a groin injury was reduced by 31%, but this reduction was not significant. A univariate analysis showed that having had a previous groin injury almost doubles the risk of developing a new groin injury and playing at a higher level almost triples the risk of developing a groin injury.
