According to the Pillai’s Trace (V), the MANOVA revealed a significant effect of status on the test criterion variables (V = 0.74; F(10, 73.00) = 20.61; P < 0.01). Follow up univariate analysis revealed a significant effect of status for each test criterion variable, with handballing accuracy on the non-domi- nant side, decision-making score and dynamic vertical jump non-dominant leg take-off each showing the largest respec- tive effect sizes (Table 1).
