rated stability higher than forwards and forwards higher than guards (p ¼ 0.003). Durability, flexibility, and breathability, on the other hand, were regarded as unimportant by 70-80% of the players.
Discussion and conclusionBB footwear development should focus on stability and injury prevention aspects. Additionally, two position-specific footwear profiles emerged out of this survey: mid cut shoe for forwards and guards, specifically designed for quickness and agility, and high cut shoe for heavy players, that must not interfere with players' jumping ability and that allow to integrate orthotics.
