The preliminary study aimed to compare dynamic balance between collegiate athletes competing or training in football and hockey using star excursion balance test.
A total thirty university level players, football (n = 15) and field hockey (n = 15) were participated in the study. Dynamic balance was assessed by using star excursion balance test. The testing grid consists of 8 lines each 120 cm in length extending from a common point at 45° increments. The subjects were instructed to maintain a stable single leg stance with the test leg with shoes off and to reach for maximal distance with the other leg in each of the 8 directions. A pencil was used to point and read the distance to which each subject's foot reached. The normalized leg reach distances in each direction were summed for both limbs and the total sum of the mean of summed normalized distances of both limbs were calculated.
There was no significant difference in all the directions of star excursion balance test scores in both the groups. Additionally, composite reach distances of both groups also found non-significant (P=0.5). However, the posterior (P=0.05) and lateral (P=0.03) normalized reach distances were significantly more in field hockey players.
Field hockey players and football players did not differ in terms of dynamic balance.
初步研究旨在通过星形偏移平衡测试比较参加足球和曲棍球比赛或训练的大学生运动员之间的动态平衡。
共有30名大学水平的运动员，足球运动员（n = 15）和曲棍球运动员（n = 15）参与了该研究。使用星形偏移平衡测试评估动态平衡。测试网格由8条长度均为120厘米的线组成，从一个共同点以45°增量延伸。受试者被要求单腿站立保持稳定，测试腿不穿鞋，用另一条腿在8个方向上分别伸展到最大距离。用铅笔指向并读取每个受试者脚伸展到的距离。计算每个方向上两下肢归一化腿伸展距离的总和，并计算两下肢归一化距离总和平均值的总和。
两组在星形偏移平衡测试分数的所有方向上均无显著差异。此外，两组的综合伸展距离也无显著差异（P = 0.5）。然而，曲棍球运动员的后向（P = 0.05）和侧向（P = 0.03）归一化伸展距离明显更长。
曲棍球运动员和足球运动员在动态平衡方面没有差异。
