The frequency of one-legged stance and two-legged stance differs considerably among sports. We therefore expect the balance ability of athletes from different sports to vary. This study compared the sway characteristics during a static one-legged stance of soccer players, basketball players, swimmers, and non-athletes. The centre of pressure sway during one-legged stance of ten male participants representing each of the four groups was measured using a stabilometer. Centre of pressure sway was assessed by four sway factors: sway velocity, anterior-posterior sway, horizontal sway, and high-frequency sway. None of the four groups of participants showed significant differences in body sway between standing on the dominant leg and standing on the non-dominant leg. The soccer players had more high-frequency sway and less anterior-posterior sway and horizontal sway than the basketball players, swimmers, and non-athletes. These results suggest that soccer players have superior ability to maintain a stable one-legged stance. Further study is required to determine how much of the superior balance ability in soccer players is innate and how much is developed through training, as well as to determine the relationship between balance ability and playing performance.
单腿站立和双腿站立的频率在不同运动项目中差异很大。因此，我们预计来自不同运动项目的运动员的平衡能力会有所不同。本研究比较了足球运动员、篮球运动员、游泳运动员和非运动员在静态单腿站立时的摇摆特征。使用稳定仪测量了代表这四个组的十名男性参与者在单腿站立时的压力中心摇摆。通过四个摇摆因素评估压力中心摇摆：摇摆速度、前后摇摆、水平摇摆和高频摇摆。四组参与者中，无论是站在优势腿还是非优势腿上，身体摇摆均无显著差异。与篮球运动员、游泳运动员和非运动员相比，足球运动员的高频摇摆更多，前后摇摆和水平摇摆更少。这些结果表明，足球运动员具有更强的单腿站立稳定能力。需要进一步研究以确定足球运动员的卓越平衡能力有多少是天生的，有多少是通过训练培养的，以及确定平衡能力与比赛表现之间的关系。
