Our data suggests that kinematic evaluations of volleyball-specific jump-landing tasks are reliable to use in screening programs, especially in the sagittal plane. Notably, reliability is poorer at the beginning and end of the landing phase, requiring careful interpretation. In conclusion, the results of this study indicate the potential for integration of sport-specific jump-landing tasks in screening programs, which will be more ecologically valid.
