In a recent paper, Donaldson et al. argued that lower extremity injuries can be prevented. Evidence-based sports injury preventive exercise programs usually have limited impact on public health because they are not widely adopted or sustained into regular training routines. One reason for this is that the intervention program may not seem relevant for the specific sport. In the paper by Donaldson et al., the authors emphasized 2 complementary ideas for a generalized process to develop an intervention: (1) “evidence-based practice integrates the best available scientific evidence with practitioner expertise and end user values” and (2) “research evidence alone is insufficient to develop implementable interventions”. In other words, there is no “one size fits all” for either preventive training or implementation strategies. Instead, it is important to work through a structured process to identify the “right” program and the “right” implementation strategies for each context. In a sport context, a key challenge is to make sure that injury prevention exercises become integrated into practice for coaches and athletes. Donaldson et al. provided a detailed description of a generalizable process for how to develop evidence-informed sports injury prevention interventions. A 6-step intervention development process is summarized to facilitate uptake of the intervention by end users, i.e., implementation of an intervention. The FootyFirst, a program developed to prevent lower-limb injuries in community Australian football, is applied as an example along with the 6 steps. In brief, the 6 steps described in the paper include the following:
