Probability to get ankle strain for young athletes and non – athletes

The subject of research: probability to get ankle strain for young athletes and non – athletes. Hypothesis: we think that the modified stars excursion balance test should help determine probability of ankle strain. Object of research: to identify 11 - 14 years football, basketball, volleyball players, the gymnasts and the Eastern martial arts athletes and non – athletes probability to get ankle strain. The Aims of research: 1. Evaluate 11 - 14 years football, basketball, volleyball players, the gymnasts and the Eastern martial arts athletes and non – athletes right and left legs of probability to get ankle strain. 2. Identify which sport has the highest representatives of probability to get ankle strain. 3. Identify or ankle strain incurred in the past affects the re – injury. Methods and organizing of research: the study subjects participated in the 110 random selection of 11 – 14 years age athletes and non – athletes, 28 of which have been of ankle ligaments injury. The study was conducted in 2008 – 2009 in the main school Zaliakalnio Kaunas, Kaunas center sports school, National Football Academy and the \"Tornado\" basketball school. The study measured the leg length, and the modified stars excursion balance test determined for young athletes and non – athletes probability to get ankle strain. Conclusion: 1. Found that 80 percent. non – athletes 11 – 14 year – old boys have the probability of the right and 70 percent. left ankle injuries, 85 percent. basketball players right and 70 percent. left ankle injuries, 70 percent. volleyball players right and 75 percent. left ankle injuries, 50 percent. footballers right and 30 percent. left ankle injuries, 30 percent. the Eastern martial arts athletes right and 50 percent. left ankle injuries, 10 percent. gymnasts right and 10 percent. left ankle injury. 2. The greatest probability to get ankle strain are basketball, volleyball players and non – athletes 11 – 14 year – old boys. 3. Ankle injuries incurred in the past affect the re – injury (p
