Independent t-tests (p- = 0.05) were used to identify differences between left and right leg dominant groups. The current version of the AFL agility test appropriately examined ~61% of footballers in this cohort. The remaining ~39% produced significantly faster times during the alternate version (0.63-0.82 seconds; p = 0.001). All footballers demonstrated a performance deficit of 5-10% between limbs (~0.72 seconds; p = 0.001). Limb dominance (directional preference) was evident for all footballers. Change of direction capabilities should therefore be examined bilaterally to eliminate bias toward athletes with particular leg dominance profiles and to provide a limb deficit measure for enhanced athletic profiling outcomes.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:54:00 AEDT ]]> Ankle proprioception, range of motion and drop landing ability differentiates competitive and non-competitive surfers https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:42795 Mon 05 Sep 2022 09:01:30 AEST ]]>
