Summary

Noncontact knee injuries are a concern in netball. As such, it is important to devise appropriate injury prevention programs that players will complete to reduce the risk of injury. Previous research suggests that the most common situation of noncontact knee injury in netball involves a stiff landing or apparent knee valgus collapse, trunk rotation, and lateral flexion. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate the effect of a neuromuscular training program on biomechanical risk factors during a netball-specific landing.
