The relationship between attentional control and injury-related biomechanics in young female volleyball players

While response inhibition was positively associated with dynamic balance, other biomechanical measures, seemed to follow a more age-dependent developmental trajectory. Among injury-related biomechanical risks, only dynamic balance can thus be considered more related to neurocognitive function. Sport practitioners are advised to consider coupling dynamic stability exercises with neurocognitive evaluations for more holistic prevention of injuries in young athletes.
