Study to address GAA’s cruciate ‘curse’
An eight-week pilot study of freshers (first year) footballers and hurlers in UCD will see a proportion of the players use a 15-minute GAA-specific prehab routine devised by the Association’s medical research sub-committee aimed at reducing such knee injuries.
The research will compare and contrast half the players who perform the programme instead of their regular warm-up exercises against the other half who will carry out their usual pre-training routine.
