A Study On Results Of Functional Movement Screen Of Basketball Specialty Students Majored In Sports Coaching In CUPES

Sports injury is common in basketball. For participants, injury is notonly harmful to their bodies but also influential to their minds. The FMS isa ranking and grading system that documents movement patterns which areessential to normal function. By screening these patterns, the FMS canidentify functional limitations and asymmetries which reduce efficiency andincrease the risk of injury in sports. This thesis aims to analyze therelationship among the results, age and BMI, and examine whether gender, yearsof training, primary position, dominant and nondominant side differencesexist in this group by screening the students of basketball specialty,majoredin sports coaching in CUPES. This normative data can also act as a referencestandard for injury prevention and further research. The thesis collects,arranges and analyzes the FMS results with the methods of documentation,testing, mathematical statistics, comparative analysis, drawing thefollowing conclusions:1. The students of basketball specialty, majored in sports coaching, CUPES,have performed well in general. In the seven screens, only students who didtrunk stability push up and deep squat have got the low score. However, thereare many injuries in this group. Twenty three students’ results are positivein clearing tests, in addition, twenty six students fail to participate inscreening due to the injury.2. The mobility and stability of body will be impacted by the growth ofage and the increasing body weight. Scores of FMS decline with the growth ofage, similarly, with increasing BMI. Although there are no statisticallysignificant differences in FMS results among the students of various yearsof training（P=0.392﹥0.05）, the scores decline with increasing years oftraining in general.3.There is no statistically significant difference between males andfemales（P=0.372﹥0.05）. It indicates that the FMS can be used to compareindividuals in mixed populations.4.There are statistically significant differences between variouspositions（P=0.047﹤0.05）. Centers perform worse than forwards and guardsin screenings of deep squat, in-line lunge, active straight leg raise, trunk stability push up, rotational stability. In addition, the injury of centersis severe,42.86%are positive in clearing tests.5. There is no statistically significant difference between dominant andnondominant side（P=0.287﹥0.05）with twenty nine students have asymmetriesof mobility and stability between contralateral body(right versus left). Onlyrotational stability results significant differences（P=0.000﹤0.005）in thefive screens.
