Not sure if any studies have been done on this but it seems like playing on artificial turf is extremely harmful when it comes to increasing the chances of major injuries. Our daughter’s team has 3 girls out with torn acls and 2 more with overuse injuries. They only play or practice on turf, which I think may be the root cause of the injuries but not sure.
Our trainer who is from Europe has told me that they only play on grass over there as the game is not meant to be played on artificial turf. He says even colleges here play a lot more on grass.
Why are we doing this to our kids, letting them play nonstop on turf driving up injuries, am I missing something?
