Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

According to available data the injury rate in male veteran soccer is high. Interventions to prevent injuries are requested. The 11+ warm-up program was developed by FIFA-experts and consists of several exercises with an overall-length of about 20 min. This study shall investigate the influence of 11+ on injury incidence and Functional Movement Screen (FMS)-Score in male veteran soccer players. Additionally it is to be examined if there is a relationship between FMS-Score and injury incidence. For this purpose the 11+-program is accomplished under supervised conditions over one regular season in a randomized-controlled study design. Injuries are documented via questionnaires in accordance with the FIFA-consensus-statement. FMS-Score is evaluated before and after the interventional period.
