Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
<p>The primary outcome measures are:<br /><br><br /><br>1) the Dropout rate and the significance of the Chi square and Fisher exact<br /><br>are determined<br /><br><br /><br>2) the Hazard ratio. The incidence density for injuries of the intervention<br /><br>and the controlgroup are analyzed . </p><br>

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
<p>A Kaplan-Meijer survival curve will be determined for the intervention group<br /><br>and control group.<br /><br>The log-rank tests will be used to determine the significant differences<br /><br>between the survival curves of the intervention and control group.<br /><br><br /><br>Additional outcome measures<br /><br>The Functional Movement Screen (FMS) score will be determined. The score<br /><br>distribution will be determined. The difference in mean scores between the<br /><br>intervention and control group will be tested, with the T test (independent<br /><br>samples).<br /><br>Change of the FMS score for the intervention and control group will be<br /><br>determined using the T-test (dependent samples)</p><br>
