Clinical Question: Is there evidence to suggest that the Landing Error Scoring System (LESS) is able to detect functional changes in landing mechanics in healthy individuals after participation in an injury prevention program (IPP)?

Clinicians should consider the LESS as an evaluative tool for measuring the efficacy of IPPs in clinical practice.
