The National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL) is joining a research project with the Women’s Super League (WSL) and player unions to study and reduce ACL injuries in women’s soccer. The project aims to understand both biological and environmental reasons why women get these injuries more often and to create better prevention plans.
Key Facts
ACL injuries happen 2 to 6 times more often in women than men.
Project ACL x NWSL is a three-year research effort involving players, leagues, and researchers.
The initiative looks beyond biology, including factors like playing surfaces, equipment, training schedules, and facilities.
Many famous women players missed major tournaments like the 2023 World Cup and 2024 Olympics due to ACL injuries.
The injury is not always career-ending, but recovery can take many months and sometimes re-injury occurs.
Biological factors increasing risk include wider hips, knee structure, and muscle imbalances in women.
Environmental factors include less strength training for women, playing on artificial turf, and using cleats made for men’s feet.
Less than 10% of sports science research focuses on female athletes at the professional level.
