(1) Background: The aim of the present study was to establish ankle joint dorsiflexion reference values among youth federated basketball players. (2) Methods: Cross-sectional study. The participants were basketball players who belonged to youth basketball developmental teams (female and male) from under-12 (U12) to under-17 (U17) categories. Ankle joint dorsiflexion range of motion was evaluated with the weight-bearing lunge test through the Leg Motion system. The distance achieved was recorded in centimeters. (3) Results: 693 basketball players who met the eligibility criteria and volunteered to participate were included in the study. The mean (SD) of ankle joint dorsiflexion was 10.68 (2.44) cm and the reference values were: excessive hypomobility < 6.09 (0.54) cm; hypomobility 6.09 (0.88) cm-8.43 (0.77) cm; normal 8.44 (0.77)-13.11 (0.79) cm; hypermobility 13.11 (0.74)-15.44 (0.86) cm; and excessive hypermobility >15.44 (0.86) cm. (4) Conclusions: This study provides ankle joint dorsiflexion reference values in youth basketball players from 12 to under 17 years old.
(1)背景:本研究旨在建立青少年篮球运动员踝关节背屈的参考值。(2)方法:横断面研究。参与者是来自 12 岁以下(U12)至 17 岁以下(U17)类别的青年篮球发展队的篮球运动员(男女)。踝关节背屈范围的运动通过 Leg Motion 系统的负重前弓步测试进行评估。记录达到的距离以厘米为单位。(3)结果:共有 693 名符合资格标准并自愿参加的篮球运动员纳入研究。踝关节背屈的平均值(SD)为 10.68(2.44)cm,参考值为:过度活动不足<6.09(0.54)cm;活动不足 6.09(0.88)cm-8.43(0.77)cm;正常 8.44(0.77)-13.11(0.79)cm;过度活动过度 13.11(0.74)-15.44(0.86)cm;过度活动过度>15.44(0.86)cm。(4)结论:本研究为 12 至 17 岁青少年篮球运动员提供了踝关节背屈的参考值。
