Star Excursion Balance Test (SEBT)
Time Frame: Six weeks
|
The SEBT was performed with the player standing at the center of a grid placed on the floor, with 8 lines extending at 458 increments from the center of the grid.
The 8 lines were labeled according to the direction of excursion relative to the stance leg: Antero-lateral (AL), Anterior (A), Antero-medial (AM), Medial (M), Poster-medial (PM), Posterior (P), Poster-lateral (PL), and Lateral (L).
To perform the SEBTs, the player maintained a single-leg stance while reaching with the opposite leg as far as possible.
The player lightly touched the farthest point possible on the line with the most distal part of the reach foot then returning to a bilateral stance while maintaining their balance.
The distance was measured from the center of the grid to the touch point with a tape measure in centimeters.
There will be two assessments, at baseline before the start of exercise program and at the end of six weeks intervention.
