Systematic Review of Cost-Effectiveness of Injury Prevention Interventions in Soccer—Evidence Why Health Agencies Should Address It

Soccer injuries are a recognized problem worldwide. Several injury prevention programs have been confirmed to reduce the number of injuries in female and male players. Unfortunately, there is a lack of data about their cost, burden, and benefit for the health care system. In this paper we aim to sys...
