A preliminary investigation into a qualitative assessment tool to identify athletes with high knee abduction moments during cutting : Cutting Movement Assessment Score (CMAS) (2017)
Journal Article

Given the limited accessibility of 3D motion analysis for injury screening of athletes, there is a need to develop a field-based screening tool to identify athletes with ‘at-risk’ cutting mechanics. The aim of this preliminary study was to assess the...
