Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

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.

Group Type OTHER

Training intervention

Intervention Type OTHER

Based on the baseline screening, which is part of the normal prevention routine within the school, all athletes are given individual advice with regard to points of attention within training. For example: those athletes with reduced balance, will get more balance training.

Intervention is individual as said and will be guided and supervised by the physical trainer and medical staff of the school.
