NCT07351396
The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of a 12-week volleyball-specific warm-up program (VOLLEY12+) on neuromuscular performance in young male volleyball players. Neuromuscular performance is an important factor related to injury risk and athletic performance in youth sports. Twenty-four male volleyball players aged 15 to 17 years were allocated into an intervention group or a control group. The intervention group performed the VOLLEY12+ warm-up program before each training session for 12 weeks, while the control group continued their usual coach-led warm-up routines. Neuromuscular performance was assessed before and after the intervention using balance and movement control tests, including the Balance Error Scoring System (BESS), the Landing Error Scoring System (LESS), and the Y Balance Test. The results of this study will help determine whether a structured, sport-specific warm-up program can improve neuromuscular performance in adolescent volleyball players and support the use of injury prevention strategies in youth volleyball training.

This is a type 3 hybrid cluster randomised controlled trial, where implementation of the intervention is the primary outcome and preventive effectiveness is the secondary outcome. The overall purpose of this study is to evaluate the added value of implementation support on the use and preventive effectiveness of the injury prevention exercise programme Knee Control+ in male and female, youth and adult amateur football teams. Research questions 1. Does use and injury preventive effect of Knee Control+ differ between teams randomised to an intervention group receiving additional support for Knee Control+ use and teams randomised to a control group with standard access to digital Knee Control+ programme material? 2. Does coach self-efficacy to use Knee Control+, player motivation and player training dosage differ between the intervention and control groups? 3. What are the mediators and moderators that influence use of Knee Control+? 4. How well do the intervention and control groups adhere to Knee Control+ recommended use and is there an association between adherence and preventive efficacy? 5. How are different components of the support material used by the intervention group teams, and how is the implementation support perceived by administrators, coaches and players in the clubs (end-users) and by fitness coaches who educate coaches about the programme (intervention deliverers)? 6. How do coaches perceive their engagement to lead Knee Control+ training with their players and has this changed after having used the implementation support material? Football teams will be randomised before the 2025 season to an intervention group receiving additional support for the implementation of Knee Control+ or to a control group without this support. All teams will have access to digital programme material via the Swedish Football Association. Data on implementation of Knee Control+ and injuries (players only) will be collected weekly (coaches) and monthly (players) throughout the season using web-based questionnaires. Behavioural outcomes: for coaches self-efficacy, action and coping planning and perceived support from the club, and for players autonomous motivation, basic psychological needs and basic need support, will also be analysed.

Judo is a popular international combat sport with an estimated 20 million active participants world-wide and participation in judo entails a substantial risk of injury in both elite and recreational judo. It is known that judo involves a significantly higher risk of sports per activity compared with another combat sports such as wrestling, karate, taekwondo an deven popular team sports such as football, basketball and volleyball. Therefore, preventing injuries in judo is so important and various interventions can use in this regard. These include; taping, warm-up and cool-down programs, proper technique trainings and exercise programs. Injury prevention programmes in other sports have been proven effective in reducing injury rates for elite and recreational athletes. In judo, research on exercise-based prevention is limited to the description of injury prevention programs, but the effectiveness of these programs has never been evaluated. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of the judo-specific ''IPPON'' warm-up programs for injury prevention of judokas on performance parameters and incidence of injuries among professional judo athletes. In this study, the investigators research the Judo-Specific Special Conditioning Test and the Isometric/Dynamic Judogi Grip Strength Test will be evaluated for performance parameters. In addition, the Upper and Lower Extremity Y Balance Test will be evaluated for balance and the Upper Extremity Internal/External Rotation Strength Test and the Lower Extremity Hamstring/Quadriceps Strength Test will be evaluated for muscle strength assessment. The Turkish translation of the Oslo Trauma Research Center Overuse Questionnaire (OSTRC-O) will be used to monitor the incidence of injuries among professional judo athletes.
