The Role of Anthropometric Parameters on Single-Leg Balance Performance in Young Sub-Elite Soccer Players

Dirk Krombholz, Luca Daniel, Peter Leinen, Thomas Muehlbauer, and Stefan Panzer

in their analyses. For example, to determine performance asymmetry in leg stability, single-leg balance performance is evaluated. In some studies, balance performance was compared between the dominant and non-dominant leg of children, young adults, and adolescents (e.g.,  Leinen, Muehlbauer, & Panzer

situations ( Butler et al., 2013 ; Plisky et al., 2006 ). In soccer, successful performance requires a pronounced single-leg balance capability, that is, the nondominant leg is responsible for stabilization, whereas the dominant leg is related to kicking and passing the ball (e.g.,  Chew-Bullock et

recorded, especially under more challenging circumstances, such as single-leg stance or standing with closed eyes ( Boeer et al., 2010 ; Kiss et al., 2017 ; Petró et al., 2018 ). These complex trajectories and deflections related to the compensatory movements might help the participants fulfill the more

, Kerrigan, & Hertel, 2008 ; Papaiakovou, 2013 ). Scapulothoracic mobility has been shown to be an essential component of overhand throwing ( Meyer et al., 2008 ). Hamstring flexibility was found to play a role in the execution of VJ, running, and kicking; single-leg balance directly affects kicking ability

Hop, as was described previously, is a complex task that involves explosive strength and coordination to achieve both vertical and horizontal displacement, while maintaining balance on a single leg. In a seminal work by Ulrich and Ulrich ( 1985 ), balance significantly predicted hop, jump, and
