Physiological and Psychological Profiles

Injury risk was evaluated using the Lower Extremity Functional Test (LEFT), which involves eight agility drills performed consecutively on a diamond-shaped course without rest intervals. The test includes eight components-forward run, backward run, side shuffle, carioca, figure-eight run, 45-degree cuts, 90-degree cuts, and a counter vertical jump-along with the single-leg hop for distance, following a standardized testing protocol known to predict injury risk. Participants who took longer to complete the test were categorized into the high injury risk group, while those with shorter completion times were classified into the low injury risk group.
