Abstract: This present paper summarizes the research status and progress of FIFA 11+ in soccer injury prevention. FIFA 11+ is a comprehensive warm-up exercise designed based on the characteristics of soccer, including Part A (basic running exercise combined with dynamic pulling), Part B (strength, enhanced training, balance exercise), Part C (high-level running exercise). The aim of FIFA 11+ is to improve the warm-up effect and prevent sports injuries. A review of literature shows that although the effect of FIFA 11+ varies according to different populations, it is still highly valid in injury prevention. This present paper makes a general review of FIFA 11+, the validity of FIFA 11+ in injury prevention and the mechanism of FIFA 11+ in sports injury prevention. It also describes the mechanism of FIFA 11+ in sports injury prevention from the aspects of cardiovascular and respiratory function, lower limb muscle strength, proprioceptive function, core stability and sensitive quality. The function of FIFA 11+ in soccer injury prevetion and physical function improvement has not been widely recognized in the scientific field, while with the deepening of research, its application in sports injury prevention plans will have wide prospect.

Key words: FIFA 11+, prevention, soccer, sport injury, research progress
