Volleyball-specific footwear with higher collar heights (a mid-cut shoe) are worn to restrict ankle motion. Reduced ankle dorsiflexion has been associated with increased frontal plane motion and injury risk at the knee. With the high frequency of unilateral landings in volleyball, the purpose of this study was to determine the effect of volleyball-specific shoes and limb dominance on knee landing mechanics in collegiate volleyball players. It was hypothesized that participants would exhibit smaller sagittal plane and greater frontal plane knee joint mechanics in mid-cut and dominant limb and that vertical and posterior directed ground reaction forces would be greater wearing mid-cut, yet similar between limbs. Seventeen female volleyball players performed unilateral landings on each limb in mid-cut and low-top volleyball shoes. For shoe main effects, smaller peak dorsiflexion angle and internal peak plantarflexion moment and greater peak medial ground reaction force were found in the mid-cut but with no impact on knee mechanics. For limb main effects, the internal peak knee abduction moment was greater in the dominant limb. Greater peak lateral ground reaction force was found in the interaction between the non-dominant limb and low-top. Further research is warranted to better understand shoe and limb impact in volleyball players.
排球专用鞋，鞋帮较高（中帮鞋），用于限制脚踝运动。脚踝背屈减少与膝关节前向运动增加和受伤风险增加有关。由于排球中单侧着地的频率较高，本研究旨在确定排球专用鞋和肢体优势对大学生排球运动员膝关节着地力学的影响。研究假设参与者在中帮鞋和优势肢体中表现出较小的矢状面和更大的额状面膝关节运动，并且垂直和向后的地面反作用力在穿中帮鞋时会更大，但在肢体之间相似。17 名女性排球运动员在中帮和低帮排球鞋上分别在每条腿上进行单侧着地。对于鞋的主要影响，中帮鞋的峰值背屈角度和内部峰值跖屈力矩较小，内侧地面反作用力峰值较大，但对膝关节力学没有影响。对于肢体的主要影响，优势肢体的内峰值膝关节外展力矩较大。在非优势肢体和低帮之间的相互作用中发现了更大的峰值横向地面反作用力。需要进一步的研究来更好地理解鞋和肢体在排球运动员中的影响。
