Team sports: one screening day, a ranked list for every player.

In a squad, the question is who needs what, and first. Each team-sport engine knows the positions, the dominant side and the movements of its game, and ranks what to fix for each player.

Handball

From plant leg to throwing elbow.

Follows the jump-shot phase by phase and shows which link fails and what it costs.

Plant

The run-up drives forward, then the plant leg catches the body and turns it into a jump: the knee-ligament (ACL) moment.

  • GME Gluteus medius · not doing its share
  • VM Vastus medialis · where the load lands
  • GT Gluteus maximus
  • VL Vastus lateralis
  • SO Soleus

Chain A plant-leg gluteus medius that is too stiff or too yielding → the knee drifts inward (ACL).

Basketball

Landing and cutting, muscle by muscle.

Shows which muscles aren't holding their share of landing and cutting load, and which joint pays.

First step

Pushing out of a stance into an explosive first step.

  • GME Gluteus medius · not doing its share
  • AL Adductor longus · where the load lands
  • GT Gluteus maximus
  • SO Soleus
  • TA Tibialis anterior

Chain Adductor with the gluteus medius on the same side compromised → the groin.

Football

Kicking leg and plant leg, compared.

Compares the two legs and shows where sprint, cut and kick load lands.

Repeated sprints

Many 5–30 m sprints with short recovery; the hamstring brakes at the end of each swing.

  • GT Gluteus maximus · not doing its share
  • BF Biceps femoris (outer hamstring) · where the load lands
  • ST Semitendinosus (inner hamstring)
  • GM Gastrocnemius medialis (inner calf)
  • SO Soleus

Chain A glute that gives way or is slow → the outer hamstring at the end of the swing.

Pre-season · after fixture congestion
Volleyball

Top five risks, numbered on the map.

Ranks what is at risk and through which chain, from the jump-landing to the spiking shoulder.

Approach and take-off

Triple extension: the ankle pushes, then the knee extends, then the hip.

  • GT Gluteus maximus · not doing its share
  • ES Erector spinae · where the load lands
  • SO Soleus
  • VL Vastus lateralis
  • RF Rectus femoris

Chain A stiff glute blocks hip extension → the lower back over-extends in the approach.
