| Popis: | Bilateral asymmetry in lower-limb power and dynamic balance has been associated with increased risk of sport injury, whereas there is a lack of research examining this asymmetry for child athletes. Twenty-eight fencers (19 boys and 9 girls, aged 9.71 ± 1.08 years) and 28 Taekwondo athletes (19 boys and 9 girls, aged 9.71 ± 1.08 years) were examined on the single-leg jump and Star Excursion Balance Test (SEBT) performance. A mixed model design ANOVA (2 [Sex: Boys, Girls] × 2 [Sport group: Fencing, Taekwondo] × 2 [Limb: Dominant, Non-dominant Leg]) was conducted to examine for difference for each test. There was a significant main effect of limb on hop and triple hop distance ( |
