Therefore, the present study intends to investigate the Effects of the modified 11+ warm-up program on lower extremity injury prevention among the male footballers. One hundred and eleven young male footballers were selected from Tehran league and were divided in two groups: modified 11+ and The Control Group. In general, the results showed significant fewer injuries in intervention group compare with players in control group. Despite 55.88% decrease in incidence of ankle injuries in intervention group, the difference was not significant. According to our results, more research is suggested in order to add wobble board training to +11 warm up programs.
