The mixed methods study will compare the rates and causes of anterior cruciate ligament and medial collateral ligament injuries on Field Turf and natural grass football fields of a NCAA Division III school. This study offers evidence for the safety of the different playing surfaces and risk to the players. This pilot study finds also evidence that there is no statistical significance between knee injuries and the playing fields. The qualitative and quantitative data are inconclusive and require further study to reach a conclusion.

Conceptually, it is important to understand the underlying physiological mechanisms of any training program model. This understanding aids the coach/sport scientist in making better choices in manipulating variables in formulating the training model. These underlying mechanisms can be associated with training variable manipulation and fatigue management aspects as well as the overall health of the athlete. Hormone and cytokine concentrations can be linked to alterations resulting from the manipulation of training variables and to subsequent alterations in performance (Haff et al., 2008; Ishigaki et al., 2005; Jurimae et al., 2010; Stone et al., 2007). For example, alterations in the testosterone: …
