摘      要：Anterior cruciate ligament(ACL)injury frequently occurs in female soccer athletes during deceleration movements such as *** soccer,landings mostly occur following jumping *** research has been done to determine the mechanics that follow and how they compare to standard drop vertical jumps(DVJ).The purpose of this study was to analyze differences in kinematics between the DVJ and the soccer-specific vertical jump(SSVJ)in female soccer athletes to better assess the sport-specific risk for ACL injury.A secondary aim was to compare second landings(L2)to first landings(L1).Eight female recreational soccer athletes performed DVJs and SSVJs initiated from a 31 cm *** capture was performed during landings and data were analyzed using repeated-measures *** produced less peak hip flexion(p=0.03)and less peak knee flexion(p=0.002)than *** also demonstrated increased ankle plantarflexion at initial contact(IC)than DVJs(p=0.005).L2s produced less peak hip(p=0.007)and knee flexion(p=0.002)than *** and L2s displayed a more erect landing posture than the DVJs and L1s at the hip and knee,a known ACL risk *** significant results between jump styles show that the SSVJ displays mechanics that are different from the *** SSVJ may be a better sport-specific screening tool for ACL injury mechanisms than the DVJ in soccer athletes as it has a more direct translation to the sport.
