Acrobatics and tumbling is a women’s sport comprised of 3 different positions: base, top, and tumbler. Each position endures substantial impact on the musculotendinous unit, however, tumblers experience the greatest lower extremity eccentric impact leading to a high injury rate. Consistent athlete monitoring may lead to injury prevention and better insights into training. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to pilot observational differences in jump height (JH), peak propulsive force (PPF), peak braking force (PBF), and peak landing force (PLF) during the counter movement jump (CMJ) in acrobatics and tumbling between tumbler and non-tumbler athletes during a …

Youth soccer players are required to play multiple matches within a short period of time. Participation in congested match schedules like youth soccer tournaments can result in fatigue and a decline in physical performance. The purpose of this study was to examine changes in countermovement jump height variables and sprint time to determine if physical performance was altered. Fourteen youth female soccer players performed countermovement jump testing pre, post-match, and post-tournament, and sprint testing pre and post-tournament. Jump height differed significantly (p
