Soccer is a popular sport, participated by millions of players worldwide. Despite the many physical and social benefits to participating in soccer, the risk of injury in this sport is 'considerable' with playing surface and footwear being identified as contributory factors. This book looks specifically at the foot and ankle, describing how the playing surface and footwear influence the ankle ligaments, Achilles tendon and metatarsal structures. An analysis of the literature then describes the potential that design change may have to reduce the risk of sustaining an injury in the future.
