This injury prevention programme was designed with input from Ladies Gaelic football stakeholders and experts and this study will determine if this programme reduces injury risk and improves physical performance over time. Participants will complete physical performance tests before and after the intervention, which consists of incorporating the injury prevention programme into regular team training sessions for 12 weeks. The study will also integrate a qualitative component to assess player's perceptions of the programme and their willingness to implement it."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD', 'ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Current Ladies Gaelic Football player competing at adult or minor level from teams consenting to participate in the trial\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Players with a current injury preventing full training participation'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT07179393', 'briefTitle': 'Evaluating the Efficacy of a Ladies Gaelic Football-Specific Injury Prevention Programme', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Dublin City University'}, 'officialTitle': 'Evaluating the Efficacy of a Ladies Gaelic Football-Specific Injury Prevention Programme: A Cluster Randomised Trial', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'DCUREC/2025/056'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'NO_INTERVENTION', 'label': 'Control Group', 'description': 'Those in the Control Group continue with their regular training/injury prevention practices during the intervention period.'}, {'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Intervention Group', 'description': 'Those in the Intervention Group perform the injury prevention programme twice weekly as part of their regular training sessions.', 'interventionNames': ['Behavioral: Ladies Gaelic Football-Specific Injury Prevention Programme']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Ladies Gaelic Football-Specific Injury Prevention Programme', 'type': 'BEHAVIORAL', 'description': 'This intervention is an injury prevention programme designed with input from Ladies Gaelic football stakeholders (players and coaches) as well as experienced athletic therapy and physiotherapy practitioners and academics from the disciplines of injury prevention and coaching science.', 'armGroupLabels': ['Intervention Group']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'city': 'Dublin', 'country': 'Ireland', 'facility': 'Dublin City University', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 53.33306, 'lon': -6.24889}}]}, 'ipdSharingStatementModule': {'ipdSharing': 'UNDECIDED'}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Dublin City University', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'SPONSOR'}}}}
