Results are split for athletes injured during the volume period.

Length= Length of the path described by the center of pressure. Area=Area of the path described by the center of pressure. Speed=Speed of the center of pressure. Xmean=Mean position of the center of pressure in the mediolateral plane. Ymean=Mean position of the center of pressure in the anteroposterior plane. The first section is for bipodal support, the second section is for the left foot (indicated by addition of l to each variable), and the third section is for the right foot (indicated by addition of r to each variable). Variables underlined were normalized. *p<0.05
