Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Functional Movement Screen (FMS) - for Stability

The Functional Movement Screen (FMS) is a standardized screening tool developed to assess fundamental movement patterns, mobility, motor control, and core stability. It comprises seven movement tasks: deep squat, hurdle step, in-line lunge, shoulder mobility, active straight-leg raise, trunk stability push-up, and rotary stability

Time frame: 8 weeks

Secondary Outcomes

Illinois Agility Test (IAT) - for Agility

The Illinois Agility Test (IAT) is a field-based test designed to assess an athlete's speed, agility, and ability to change direction rapidly.

Time frame: 8 weeks

Y-Balance Test (YBT) - for Dynamic Balance

The Y-Balance Test (YBT) is a performance-based test used to assess dynamic balance and postural control. It requires the athlete to stand on one leg while reaching in three directions-anterior, posteromedial, and posterolateral-with the opposite leg.

Time frame: 8 weeks
