This study assessed how performance variables related to speed and jumping influence the variability of %CODD among adult highly trained female soccer players. <jats:italic><jats:bold>Methods<\/jats:bold>:<\/jats:italic> Fifty-two highly trained female soccer players (age 23.1 [3.25]\u00a0y; height 163.6 [5.49]\u00a0cm; weight 59.7 [5.71]\u00a0kg) participated in this study and performed 180COD, 40-m sprint, countermovement jump, and standing broad jump tests. <jats:italic><jats:bold>Results<\/jats:bold>:<\/jats:italic> Significant correlations were found between 180CODL, %CODDR, %CODDL, and between-limbs standing broad jump asymmetry (<jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009.28\u2013.74). A very large correlation existed between %CODDR and %CODDL (<jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009.91). Regression analyses indicated a strong inverse relationship between the 10-m sprint time and %CODDR and %CODDL. No predictive models were found for 180COD in either limb. Differences in performance variables such\u00a0as 180CODR, 180CODL, and asymmetry %CODD were significant between the high- and low-%CODD groups, with moderate to large effect sizes. <jats:italic><jats:bold>Conclusion<\/jats:bold>:<\/jats:italic> The present study suggests that specific physical-performance variables, particularly acceleration and unilateral horizontal jumping, are vital to improving COD in highly trained female soccer players, highlighting the need for specific training interventions.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1123\/ijspp.2024-0198","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,9,18]],"date-time":"2024-09-18T10:53:01Z","timestamp":1726656781000},"page":"1374-1380","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Assessment of the Relationship Between Physical Performance and Percentage Change-of-Direction Deficit in Highly Trained Female Football Players"],"prefix":"10.1123","volume":"19","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5359-1524","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Alberto","family":"Roso-Moliner","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Health Sciences Faculty, Universidad San Jorge, Zaragoza, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2947-9564","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Elena","family":"Mainer-Pardos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Health Sciences Faculty, Universidad San Jorge, Zaragoza, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1505-1287","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Chris","family":"Bishop","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Science and Technology, London Sport Institute, Middlesex University, London, United Kingdom"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7679-2062","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Oliver","family":"Gonzalo-Skok","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Communication and Education, Universidad Loyola Andaluc\u00eda, Seville, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"100","reference":[{"key":"r1","series-title":"Sport Sci Health","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11332-017-0360-y","article-title":"Isokinetic performance of knee extensors and flexors in adolescent male soccer athletes","volume":"13","author":"Vi\u00e7osa Bonetti L","year":"2017","unstructured":"Vi\u00e7osa Bonetti L, Floriano L, Santos T, Segalla F, Biondo S, Tadiello G.
