Intervention(s)
|
Kinesio taping will be used in this study. A physiotherapist that is specifically trained to apply kinesio taping for the purpose of this study. The type of kinesio tape that will be used is Kinesio Tex Gold with size of 5 cm and beige in colour. The tape will be applied to 3 muscles (rectus femoris of quadriceps, biceps femoris of hamstring and medial gastrocnemius) of the dominant leg of the participants. The tape will be applied during participants preparation atleast 30 minutes prior warm up and stretching at the High Performance Gym (study setting). Once the tape is applied, the tape will be used throughout the study (approximately 2 hours) as the tape is effective for 3-5 days. No replacement of tape will be required. Tape is applied to each participant on a single occasion only. The tape applied will be regularly checked throughout the study. If the edge of tape begun to lift, it will be trimmed. If the tape applied come off, new tape will be applied.
After the warm up and stretching session, participants will be given a session to get familiarize with the test and protocol before the actual procedure. Then, participants will be asked to set a preferred jogging speed for dynamic postural control measurement. This will be achieved by participants jog on the treadmill with a fixed speed of 0.5 km/h to start. Next, the belt speed will be increased by 0.4 km/h every 15 seconds until participant found the preferred speed.
Next, participant will do the actual testing procedure. For the baseline test or pre-test, prior starting, participant’s maximum vertical jump will be recorded. Participant then will perform the T-Drill Test to assess the agility. After completing T-Drill Test, participant then will perform vertical jump test to assess leg power.

Primary Outcome(s)
|
Composition score of Star Excursion Balance Test (SEBT)[Baseline and post test. Baseline assessment is conducted after the tape is applied. Post test is within 15 seconds after manifestation neuromuscular fatigue]
|
Secondary Outcome(s)
|
Muscle activity will be assessed using electromyography (EMG) during performing skill related physical fitness tests such as Star Excursion Balance Test (SEBT) for balance, T-Drill Test for agility and using pressure sensitive treadmill for postural control. [Baseline and post test. Baseline assessment is conducted after the tape is applied. Post test is within 15 seconds after manifestation neuromuscular fatigue]
|
Time taken to complete T-Drill Test[Baseline and post test. Baseline assessment is conducted after the tape is applied. Post test is within 15 seconds after manifestation neuromuscular fatigue]
|
Parameters of Postural control. The postural control during running will be assessed using a pressure sensitive treadmill (Zebris FDM-T Treadmill System 'Registered Trademark', Isny, Germany). The treadmill will present a continuous trace of the Center of Pressure (CoP) trajectory for jogging/dynamic postural control. This is term as “butterfly”. This will provide the information on anterior/posterior variability, lateral symmetry and lateral variability.[Baseline and post test. Baseline assessment is conducted after the tape is applied. Post test is within 15 seconds after manifestation neuromuscular fatigue]
|
Height of Vertical Jump Test [Baseline and post test. Baseline assessment is conducted after the tape is applied. Post test is within 15 seconds after manifestation neuromuscular fatigue]
