Sažetak
Non-contact mechanisms, such as landing from a jump, frequently lead to joint or ligament injuries, that are probably the result of strength deficits or impaired stability and balance. Basketball and handball have a lot of similarities regarding movement structures (jump shot, change of direction, take-offs and landings). These movement structures require a high dynamic balance level which can improve performance and reduce risk of injury. Although, there are a lot of similarities in take-off and landing techniques, the purpose of this study is to identify whether there are differences in dynamic balance between basketball and handball players. Sample consists of 14 basketball youth players and 13 handball youth players. Measuring was conducted with the use of Optojump Next system. Drift protocol is predefined test that uses jump results to evaluate dynamic balance level. Differences between two groups were determined with the use of multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA). Results of MANOVA showed that there is no overall difference between basketball and handball players in dynamic balance test used in this study. However, some differences are noticed when observing each variable individually. Contact time and area covered during jump presented significant differences between basketball and handball players in jumps performed with left and right leg (Tcont_Left – p=0, 04 ; Tcont_Right – p=0, 01 ; Area_ Left – p=0, 05 ; Area_Right – p=0, 04). Height of the jump did not show any significant differences between handball and basketball players.
