Abstract Purpose To present the results of a return to sports bridge program designed to reduce knee injuries following ACL reconstruction and physical therapy. Methods One hundred and fifty (male = 83, female = 67) patients participated in a whole body neuromuscular control, progressive resistance strength and agility training program. Post-program testing included functional movement form, dynamic knee stability, lower extremity power, agility, and sports skill assessments. Participants completed the Knee Outcome Survey–Sports Activity Scale (KOS-SAS) before and after program initiation. Pre-participation scores were re-estimated following program completion. Results Global rating KOS-SAS score at program entry was 75 ± 13. Post-program global rating and calculated KOS-SAS were 91.0 ± 9.8 and 90.9 ± 9.7, respectively (p
