Through the AFL Research Board, the AFL has developed a standardised Musculoskeletal Screening Protocol which is relevant to the game, applicable across different ages and skill levels, suitable for evaluation of injury outcomes in a cohort study and simple and easy to apply. The Screening tools are reliable and valid, easy to perform and require only inexpensive equipment. In association with the research project, the AFL Development Department has produced a Musculoskeletal Screening DVD which has been loaded onto the AFL website in the Injury Management section (where the Concussion brochure and poster is also published).
