I know there are similar guys to Mandelbaum who have worked with women's soccer programs, because the incidence of knee injuries is so high, and they too have been able to reduce the injury rate.
If i was a pro owner or coach, I would hire someone to get in contact with these groups and have them work with the strength and conditioning staff to incorporate as many of these new techniques in training to reduce any type of injury that can be reduced or minimized. There will always be injuries that cannot be avoided, but to the extent that they can be avoided could be a major competitive advantage for a team.
