ABSTRACT

This edition of the ‘BASES Biomechanics Guidelines’, as they have become almost affectionately known, is an exciting development for the Association, being the first edition to be published commercially. Many changes have taken place in sports biomechanics since the previous edition (Bartlett, 1997) a decade ago. Not only have the procedures used for data collection and analysis in sport and exercise biomechanics continued to expand and develop but also the theoretical grounding of sport and exercise biomechanics has become sounder, if more disparate than formerly.
