IN-DEPTH GENDER-PERSPECTIVE EXAMINATION OF ACL INJURIES IN BADMINTON PLAYERS' ONE-LEG LANDING

Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) injuries, which affect the knee's anterior cruciate ligament, are mutual in sports, especially among players who participate in activities that need rapid breaks and modifications in direction. Such injuries may require considerable rehabilitation and they can have a major influence on an individual's sports performance. This analysis intends to evaluate the ACL injuries in badminton players' one-leg landing. Thirty badminton athletes were involved in this investigation. Individuals back-stepped to the backhand side while simultaneously performing a striking motion overhead, landing on the impact plate with one leg, and then rebounding to the initial phase. Gender, weight age, height, and experience were all reported. Kinematics and kinetic information regarding the position of the left knee joint and impacting instances were collected. Those data were compared and analyzed by independent t-test employing the SPSS analytical tool. This investigation found significant kinetic and kinematics variations in the ankle joints, hip, and knee of individuals while landing in a risky position regarding ACL injuries. There were no substantial variations in the median age and badminton playing experiences. We determined that there is a significant association between female players' high knee value angles during risky landing positions and the probability of ACL injuries.
