Cutting movement assessment score (CMAS) Tool.

Camera Angle Variable Observation Score
Penultimate contact
Side/45° Backwards inclination of the trunk Y/N Y = 0/N = 1
Final contact
Front/45° Wide lateral leg plant (at initial contact) Y/N Y = 2/N = 0
Front/45° Hip in an initial internally rotated position (at initial contact) Y/N Y = 0/N = 1
Front/45° Initial knee ‘valgus’ position (at initial contact) Y/N Y = 0/N = 1
Front/side Inwardly rotated foot position at initial contact) Y/N Y = 0/N = 1
Front/45° Frontal plank trunk position relative to intended direction; Lateral (L), Upright (U) or Medial (M) (at initial contact and over WA) L/U/M L = 2/U = 1/M = 0
Side/45° Trunk upright or leaning back throughout contact (at initial contact and over WA) Y/N Y = 0/N = 1
Side/45° Limited knee flexion during final contact (over WA) Y/N Y = 0/N = 1
Front/45° Excessive knee ‘valgus’ motion during contact (over WA) Y/N Y = 0/N = 1
Total score /11

Key: WA: weight acceptance; Y: yes; N: no; L: lateral; U: upright; M: medial.
