Summary

SUMMARY Contextualization The knee is one of the joints that has more injuries reports in
 men's soccer. Nowadays there are different injury prevention protocols, but none of them
 specifically focus on the knee joint. Numerous studies have shown that proprioceptive work is
 more effective than traditional protocols.
 
 Objective This study aims to test the effects of a proprioceptive exercise program included
 as part of warm-up or cool-down in preventing knee injuries and muscle performance in youth
 soccer players Methodology This is a quasi-experimental study with three intervention groups.
 One group will be control, another group will be experimental with the intervention in the
 warm-up phase, and another one experimental group with the intervention in the cool-down
 phase. The independent variable will be the proprioceptive exercises, the dependent variables
 will be the dynamic balance measured with the Y Balance Test, and the muscular performance
 measured with Counter Movement Jump and the 40m sprint. The confounding variables will be
 age, height, weight, and body mass index (BMI).
