The entire observation process must be carried out by a team trained in data collection and coordinated in the execution of the following roles:

Controller: Responsible for executing the fall, thus directing and overseeing the entire implementation process. They verify the student's starting position, the placement of equipment, and the student's attire. They also monitor the stress and motor responses to the given situation.

Observer: Verifies the student's identification code when entering the test area. Checks the video equipment's functionality, gives the green light for the Controller to initiate the fall sequence, and records the motor response data of the students.

Assistant: Controls the entry and exit of students from the recording area, checks the student's identification code, attire, and records weight, height, and sports practice data. If necessary, they reposition the markers on the mat.

To ensure that direct observation is as consistent as possible, students' attire should not interfere with their motor movements (avoid hoodies, scarves, loose or baggy clothing, etc.).

The age of the students influences the test's execution pace, so it is essential to give younger students the time needed to assume the correct starting position.
