I have a suggestion. Have your daughter evaluated periodically by a top notch physical therapist who works with collegiate or national level athletes. You might need a prescription from a physician to get that done. A good PT with that kind of experience can find problems before they turn into injuries. They can give her the correct stretches and strengthening to prevent those knees from becoming injury prone, which she can incorporate into her daily warm-up. Proper leg maintenance can prevent improper use of the knee joint.

I have been using that approach with my son and it has cut his injury rate substantially. I wouldn't know who to use in So. California, but in No. California we use Deirdra McLoughlin. Maybe she could give you a name. She had at least one track and field olympian in London.
