Summary

Hypothesis of the clinical study: There are differences between the Water Polo Group and the Non-Water Polo Group in terms of shoulder parameters and core (lumbopelvic) parameters and there are differences between the throwing and non-throwing sides in terms of shoulder parameters in Water Polo Group.

Conditions

  • Shoulder Injuries
  • Sport Injury
  • Sports Physical Therapy

Interventions

OTHER

Shoulder and core evaluations

Five main parameters of the shoulder were assessed: the flexibility of pectoralis minor muscle, tightness of the posterior shoulder capsule, glenohumeral range of motion of internal and external rotation (sum of internal and external rotation: total range of motion), the strength of rotator cuff muscles and scapula position. As core parameters, trunk muscle endurance (flexor, extensor, and laterals) and core stability were evaluated.
