Visual tracking behaviour of two-handed catching in boys with developmental coordination disorder.

Background: Developmental coordination disorder (DCD) is a motor learning disability that affects coordination resulting in an inability to perform movement skills at an age appropriate level. One area suspected to contribute to the movement difficulties experienced are deficits in visuomotor control.

Aims: This study investigated visual tracking behaviour during catching in children with DCD.

Catch! Movement kinematics of two-handed catching in boys with Developmental Coordination Disorder.

Purpose: To quantify two-handed catching in boys with Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) by examining sequencing of the upper limb and trunk segments, and degree of symmetry.

Method: Thirteen boys with DCD( ̅x=9.36 years ± 0.
