Summary

This randomized controlled study aims to investigate the effects of neuroathletic training on dynamic visual acuity, endurance, balance, and injury risk in adolescent basketball players. Licensed basketball players aged 14-17 years will be randomly assigned to either a neuroathletic training group or a control group. The training group will receive sport-specific progressive neuroathletic exercises in addition to their regular basketball training for one week, while the control group will continue their usual training routine. Before and after the intervention, participants will be assessed for dynamic visual acuity, core muscle endurance, balance, functional movement, pain, and kinesiophobia. The findings of this study may help clarify whether neuroathletic training can improve performance-related outcomes and reduce injury risk in adolescent basketball players.

Interventions

OTHER

neuroathletic training

This intervention is a progressive neuroathletic training program developed by the research team to improve motor skills, balance, eye coordination, and vestibular function in adolescent basketball players. The program is performed for approximately 20 minutes per day over 6 days and includes visual relaxation exercises, eye massage, unilateral vertical jumping, Brock string training, shoulder/wrist/ankle circular movements, sacculus activation, cerebellar activation, and antisaccade exercises. The content is progressively advanced across days by integrating balance challenges and visual-vestibular tasks.
