简要总结
This project is a consequence of the research chair project studying the same phenomenon in adult volleyball players. The project will make use of and be part of the routine medical screening that is taken by the young players of the first degree of the Leuven Volleyball School, Belgium. All young players must undergo a routine medical investigation and movement screening. This is obliged by the law. The current project will use these data. Outcome parameters will be used to advice the trainer staff of the school to adjust their training interventions. This is normal routine too as the involved medical department has been advising the school for many years. Players will be followed up for 6 weeks. After those 6 weeks, the movement screening will be repeated to evaluate the change in the different outcome parameters. This last screening is not part of a normal routine as players normally are investigated more in a subjective way. The medical team and school want to change that routine.
Data will be used to further improve training modalities and sports performance and reduce injury risk in these young athletes.

结局指标
主要结局
Change of joint mobility
时间窗: Difference between baseline and 6 weeks
Mobility will be assessed by using goniometer measurements (degrees of movement)
Change of strength
时间窗: Difference between baseline and 6 weeks
Strength will be assessed by using handheld dynamo-meter data (Newton)
Change in lower limb joint angles during a single leg drop vertical jump
时间窗: Difference between baseline and 6 weeks
Movement quality is measured using joint angles (trunk, pelvis, hip, knee, ankle)
Change in lumbopelvic stability score
时间窗: Difference between baseline and 6 weeks
Lumbopelvic stability is scored using 9 clinical tests (Bend knee fall out, Active straight leg raise, prone knee bend, sitting knee extension, standing bow, pelvic tilt, one leg stance, backward rocking, forward rocking). Each test is given a score between 0 (poor performance) and 2 (good performance) adding up to a total score of 18.
Change in lower limb joint angles during a drop jump
时间窗: Difference between baseline and 6 weeks
Movement quality is measured using joint angles (trunk, pelvis, hip, knee, ankle)
Change in balance score
时间窗: Difference between baseline and 6 weeks
Stability is measured using the score on the Star Excursion Balance Test (numeric score on balance scale)
次要结局
- Individualized web diagram of all outcome measurements(Baseline)
- Number of injuries(Baseline information from medical investigation)
