Landing Error Scoring System: Data from Youth Volleyball Players.

ABSTRACT: The Landing Error Scoring system (LESS) is a reliable screening tool for Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) injury. The test is focused on biomechanical errors of landing motion and is used to evaluate the risk of knee injuries in several sports, such as football and basketball, which involve repeated jumping demands. Presently, available LESS data from youth volleyball players is limited, thus screening for injury risk has not been comprehensively undertaken in this cohort. The LESS is typically performed by jumping from a box while video motion in 2 sagittal and frontal planes is recorded, with the jump landing rated against 17-items. A total of 233 players performed three jump landing trials resulting in a total of 1398 videos being recorded. Each LESS score item was rated by two physical
