“…Postural control and balance abilities are built on a complex system that contributes to postural control, including visual, somatosensor and vestibular systems and there are studies which state that it is affected by various anthropometric variables [18,28]. Ozunlu et al [29] and Jonhston et al [27] The findings obtained in this study are inconsistent with the results of previous studies showing anthropometric differences according to the positions of professional footballers. It is considered in this study that there is no difference in the dynamic balance between the groups due to the lack of anthropometric differences.…”

Background and Study Aim: Balance control has been regarded as a crucial factor in sports and indicated as an important element to be examined for the risks of injury. But it is unknown whether the dynamic balance changes according to the player positions in professional soccer players. To determine whether there were differences in the dynamic balance performance of the different positions of Turkish professional soccer players from within one squad. Material and Methods: Twenty-four professional soccer players were divided into 4 groups by the coach, including goalkeepers (n = 3), midfielders (n = 6), defenders (n = 7) and forwards (n = 8). Prior the competition season, anthropometric characteristics of players were measured. Then, players were tested Y Balance Test (YBT) for the anterior (ANT), posteromedial (PM), and posterolateral (PL) reach distances and limb lengths bilaterally. Results: The goalkeepers were heavier compared with the midfielders. Furthermore, the BMI of the goalkeepers were higher than midfielders and defenders (p< 0.05). There were no significant differences in the ANT, PM, PL, and COMP score between the groups (p> 0.05). The values for reach asymmetry were lower than four centimeters among groups in the all reach direction with regards to reach asymmetries, except normalized posterolateral direction. Conclusions: The results of this study have shown that the YBT performance scores do not differ between the groups. Future studies are required to create specific norms related to dynamic balance performance and establish risk cut-off score for professional soccer players.

“…Ozunlu et al 44 wanted to estimate how dynamic posturalcontrol might be altered in the presence of extra weight. To examine the effect of carrying heavy loads on balance among school-aged children, healthy adolescent participants performed the SEBT with and without wearing an additional 20% of their body mass in a backpack.…”

“…Because the test requires the person to maintain balance at his or her limits of stability, the SEBT can be used to discriminate neuromuscular control abilities at the more demanding levels that are required for athletes, occupational workers, and active individuals. As discussed, the SEBT can differentiate participants with lower extremity injuries [1][2][3]9,29,44,45 ; therefore, it might be used as a marker of normalization of neuromuscular control after those injuries.…”

Context: A dynamic postural-control task that has gained notoriety in the clinical and research settings is the Star Excursion Balance Test (SEBT). Researchers have suggested that, with appropriate instruction and practice by the individual and normalization of the reaching distances, the SEBT can be used to provide objective measures to differentiate deficits and improvements in dynamic postural-control related to lower extremity injury and induced fatigue, and it has the potential to predict lower extremity injury. However, no one has reviewed this body of literature to determine the usefulness of the SEBT in clinical applications.Objective: To provide a narrative review of the SEBT and its implementation and the known contributions to task performance and to systematically review the associated literature to address the SEBT's usefulness as a clinical tool for the quantification of dynamic postural-control deficits from lower extremity impairment.Data Sources: Databases used to locate peer-reviewed articles published from 1980 and 2010 included Derwent Innovations Index, BIOSIS Previews, Journal Citation Reports, and MEDLINE.Study Selection: The criteria for article selection were (1) The study was original research. (2) The study was written in English. (3) The SEBT was used as a measurement tool.Data Extraction: Specific data extracted from the articles included the ability of the SEBT to differentiate pathologic conditions of the lower extremity, the effects of external influences and interventions, and outcomes from exercise intervention and to predict lower extremity injury.Data Synthesis: More than a decade of research findings has established a comprehensive portfolio of validity for the SEBT, and it should be considered a highly representative, noninstrumented dynamic balance test for physically active individuals. The SEBT has been shown to be a reliable measure and has validity as a dynamic test to predict risk of lower extremity injury, to identify dynamic balance deficits in patients with a variety of lower extremity conditions, and to be responsive to training programs in both healthy people and people with injuries to the lower extremity. Clinicians and researchers should be confident in employing the SEBT as a lower extremity functional test.

“…As found by previous studies (Arnold, De La Motte, Linens, & Ross, 2009;Brown & Mynark, 2007;Ross, Guskiewicz, Gross, & Yu, 2009), functional ankle stability/instability affects balance. Many studies considering this issue were conducted (Hale, Hertel, & Olmsted-Kramer, 2007;Lin, Liu, Hsieh, & Lee, 2009;Martínez-Ramírez, Lecumberri, Gómez, & Izquierdo, 2010;McKeon et al, 2008;Munn, Sullivan, & Schneiders, 2010;Ozunlu, Basari, & Baltaci, 2010).…”
