| dc.description.abstract | Background: Balanced muscle strength of the hamstrings and quadriceps muscle groups, are crucial for knee joint stability, movement efficiency and injury prevention. The occurrence of injury to the knee joint and the hamstring muscles in particular is high in rugby players. The dynamic control ratio (DCR) is important to assess as it gives an indication of the hamstring muscle’s functional capacity relative to the quadriceps muscles and is an important factor in injury prevention. | en_ZA |
