Description
Summary:In 2018, Prep-to-Play PRO was collaboratively developed with stakeholders (sporting organisation, physiotherapists, coaches, athletes) to address the high rate of anterior cruciate ligament injuries in the women’s elite Australian Football League (AFLW). Methods: The Reach Effectiveness Adoption Implementation and Maintenance Sports Setting Matrix (RE-AIM SSM) was applied in an ecological evaluation of Prep-to-Play PRO. Discussion: Triangulation of multiple data sources provided high confidence that during the 2019 AFLW season, players and staff knew about Prep-to-Play PRO and used the program as it was intended (all components, dosage, frequency, in/out of season) as practically possible within contextual constraints.
