* BACKGROUND: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries are common in youth soccer players. ACL injury prevention programs (ACL-IPP) demonstrate strong efficacy in clinical trials but may have poor effectiveness in the real world due to low levels of implementation. * CASE PRESENTATION: Four coaches representing 7 teams, totaling 91 soccer players (66 female), who had no prior utilization of ACL-IPP, agreed to undergo a knowledge translation intervention to facilitate implementation of an ACL-IPP. Barriers and facilitators were identified, and a novel ACL-IPP was created based on established clinical practice guidelines to adhere to the local context. * OUTCOME AND FOLLOW-UP: All coaches reported an increase in usage of an ACL-IPP, with 2/4 coaches reporting a usage of 2x/week or greater. Coaches reported that the repeated on-the-field training sessions were most helpful to facilitate implementation. * DISCUSSION: Inclusion and continual engagement of coaches or other relevant stakeholders may lead toward increased implementation across amateur youth sports, thereby reducing the overall burden of ACL injuries.
