Objective[edit | edit source]
A series of hop tests are routinely used in the assessment for return to sports post-injury, be it an ankle sprain or anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. They are both functional and quantitative, allowing a measurement of power and strength of the affected to unaffected leg.
- Single hop test
- Triple hop test
- Crossover hop test
- 6 meter timed hop test

Evidence[edit | edit source]
It is recommended that an athlete has to score >90% on the tests to have a reduced risk of reinjury or injury. Quality of take-off and landing mechanics should also be assessed, on top of quantitive scores.
The hop tests are also not used as standalone in return to sports, Recent research has shown that RTS should be based on meeting key performance criteria, including full range of motion of affected joint, comparable muscle strength and power, running and neuromuscular control.
