I am only lvl 1 and thus have little facilities to help with injuries and yet I have only had 3 or 4 injuries in 30+ games and none since I did the second pitch upgrade......I have 4 scout players too. I didn't really want to shell out for them but I started after the season began and didn't have time to train up players without losing games. Would have been different had the update been in place when I started.

Now I am training young players to scout level and they will be worth keeping past lvl 2.
