The gap

Evidence profile

Sourced from the future-work section and stated research gap and synthesized of the source papers, classified as general, spanning 3 journals.

Supporting evidence — 4 representative gaps

• Comparison of Jump Performance and Lower-Limb Strength by Playing Position in Soccer Players (2026) · Turkish Journal of Sport and Exercise · doi

  Future studies can investigate the effects of position-specific training programs on the physical performance of soccer players. Research can examine the relationship between jumping ability and lower extremity strength and injury risk in soccer players. The study's findings can be used to inform the development of new training programs and injury prevention strategies for soccer players.

• The Effect of Virtual Reality-Based Multimodal Training Programs on the Balance and Agility of Young Football Athletes (2026) · Physical Education Theory and Methodology · doi

  There is a lack of research on the effectiveness of VR-based training programs in improving balance and agility in young soccer athletes. There is a need for innovative approaches to enhance physical fitness in young athletes. The study addresses the gap in the literature by examining the effects of VR-based training on balance and agility in young soccer athletes.

• The Impact of Functional Movement Strength Training on Core Muscle Activation and Trunk Kinematics During Jumping Heading in Adolescent Soccer Players (2026) · Physical Education Theory and Methodology · doi

  Future studies should investigate the long-term effects of FMST on core muscle activation and trunk kinematics during jumping heading. Future studies should examine the effects of FMST on other aspects of soccer performance, such as sprinting and changing direction. Future studies should investigate the use of FMST in other sports and populations.

• Main Causes and Preventive Measures of Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injury in Basketball (2026) · Theoretical and Natural Science · doi

  Injury prevention research in basketball has focused on anterior cruciate ligament injuries and lower limb injuries during offensive movements (direction change, drive, single-leg landing), but none of these studies examine injury mechanisms or prevention strategies specific to defensive movements, defensive positioning, or defensive-specific neuromuscular demands.
