I was out all last year when I partially tore my right ACL. I haven't been able to get back to my playing level since.

All anyone can do, assuming you don't do surgery, is to constantly rehab it every week. I go to the gym and do weighted squats and also non-weighted squats on balance boards and do stationary cycle. Whenever I skip the gym I can feel the weakness during games. Work on your surrounding muscle groups to help compensate for the sprains.
