“…It is potentially easier to elicit changes in cutting technique in youth athletes because movement patterns of cuttings are probably not yet as stable (i.e., neural plasticity) and automatized as in adults, who likely have a higher training age (i.e., sport-specific movement experience). From a motor learning perspective, technique modifications in experienced athletes involve the change of well-established movement patterns, which can be accompanied by undesirable side effects, such as performance stagnation and a familiarization phase of individually varying duration [ 133 , 134 ]. This might explain the individual responses to technique modification training observed in some studies [ 78 , 79 ].…”

This study developed a cutting technique modification training program and investigated its effects on cutting performance and movement quality in adolescent American football players. For six weeks, an intervention group (IG) of 11 players participated in 25 min cutting technique modification training sessions integrated into team training twice a week, while a control group (CG) of 11 players continued their usual team training. Movement quality was assessed by evaluating 2D high-speed videos, obtained during preplanned 45° and 90° cutting tests, using the Cutting Movement Assessment Score (CMAS) qualitative screening tool. Cutting performance was assessed based on change of direction deficit (CODD). Significant interaction effects of time × group were found for CMAS in 45° and 90° cuttings (p < 0.001, ηp2 = 0.76, p < 0.001, ηp2 = 0.64, respectively), with large improvements in the IG (p < 0.001, g = −2.16, p < 0.001, g = −1.78, respectively) and deteriorations in the CG for 45° cuttings (p = 0.002, g = 1.15). However, no statistically significant differences in CODD were observed pre-to-post intervention. The cutting technique modification training was effective at improving movement quality without impairing cutting performance, and it can be used by practitioners working with adolescent athletes.
