Summary

Ankle sprains are the most common injury in basketball, especially involving repetitive maneuvers such as acceleration, deceleration, jumping, and landing. The incidence of ankle sprain is 40% in female basketball players and 75% in male basketball players. It is also known that chronic ankle instability (CAI) develops in 20-40% of cases. The effects of chronic ankle instability on core stabilization, dynamic balance and agility in basketball players have been investigated in the literature, and it has been stated that more studies are needed on the subject.

The aim of this study is to examine the effects of chronic ankle instability on core stabilization, dynamic balance and agility in basketball players playing in the university team.

The hypothesis of the study is that there is a difference between core stabilization, dynamic balance and agility values of basketball players playing in the university team with and without chronic ankle instability.
