Coaches of 12U (12 years old and under), and 13U (13 years old and under) teams within six youth football organizations will pilot test the intervention. Aim 1 will conduct focus groups with coaches, parents, and organizational leaders to assess organizational needs, capacity, and readiness to adopt the intervention program. Aim 2 will evaluate the effectiveness of the intervention program at reducing HIE and injuries and evaluate implementation success. Aim 2 results (intervention outcomes) are reported herein., conditionsModule conditions: Head Injury, conditions: Sport Injury, designModule studyType: INTERVENTIONAL, phases: NA, designInfo allocation: NON_RANDOMIZED, interventionModel: PARALLEL, primaryPurpose: SUPPORTIVE_CARE, maskingInfo masking: NONE, enrollmentInfo count: 30, type: ESTIMATED, armsInterventionsModule interventions name: practice structure intervention, outcomesModule primaryOutcomes measure: Number of practice head impacts, primaryOutcomes measure: Number of practice head acceleration events, primaryOutcomes measure: Practice head impact rate, primaryOutcomes measure: Practice head acceleration even rate, primaryOutcomes measure: Median linear acceleration, primaryOutcomes measure: Median rotational acceleration, primaryOutcomes measure: Median rotational velocity, primaryOutcomes measure: 95th percentile linear acceleration, primaryOutcomes measure: 95th percentile rotational acceleration, primaryOutcomes measure: 95th percentile rotational velocity, secondaryOutcomes measure: Feasibility of Intervention Measure (FIM) Values, secondaryOutcomes measure: Acceptability of Intervention Measure (AIM) Values, secondaryOutcomes measure: Number of practices the intervention was implemented as prescribed, secondaryOutcomes measure: Average minutes per practice of live time, eligibilityModule sex: ALL, minimumAge: 11 Years, maximumAge: 14 Years, stdAges: CHILD, contactsLocationsModule locations facility: Wake Forest University Health Sciences, city: Winston-Salem, state: North Carolina, zip: 27157, country: United States, contacts name: Jill Urban, PhD, MPH, role: CONTACT, phone: 336-716-0947, email: jurban@wakehealth.edu, contacts name: Konstantia Strates, role: CONTACT, phone: 336-713-1263, email: kcstrate@wakehealth.edu, contacts name: Jill Urban, PhD, MPH, role: PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR, geoPoint lat: 36.09986, lon: -80.24422, hasResults: False
