Summary

In this study, it was aimed to determine the effect of pressing styles and insoles on jumping performances.

Detailed description

In this clinical study, 30 healthy male football players between the ages of 16-20 will be carried out at Kasımpaşa Sports Club Academy. In the study, the effect of medial longitudinal arch height and the use of insoles on jumping using vertical jump, countermovement jump and drop jump tests will be investigated. Football players; Medial longitudinal arch heights will be measured by applying Foot Posture Index-6 and Navicular Position Test. As a result of these measurements; flat sole, normal sole and high sole will be divided into three groups. These three groups; Vertical jumping, countermovement jumping and drop jumping tests will be applied with the help of portable jumping apparatus and the results will be recorded. These tests will be re-applied to all three groups with a non-personalized, prefabricated insole that supports the medial arch. According to these tests, it will be investigated whether jumping performance depends on medial arch height. It will be evaluated whether there is a change in jumps after the insoles used. The obtained data will be analyzed statistically.
