torn ankle ligaments

My daughter, 15 yrs old, tore the ligaments in her ankle skateboarding. She wore a boot for about 8 weeks and the Dr said it is fine to start working out again. She now wears an ankle brace when she does any type of exercise. She plays tennis on the school team, but her ankle hurts her when she runs during the tennis games. Would you please email me some exercises for her to do to help strengthen her ankle and give her less pain? Thank you for your assistance.
