The aim of this study is to examine the effects of neuromuscular fatigue on functional movement analysis total score and balance ability. 28 professional football players participated in the study voluntarily. A 10-meter running and vertical jump test was used to assess neuromuscular fatigue in football players. Functional movement skills were made with the functional movement imaging method. Balance skill was measured with the modified Y balance test. Statistical analysis of the data obtained in the study was carried out with the t-test in paired samples. According to the t-test results in paired samples, the average functional movement total scores of the football players who participated in the study were 15.64±2.34 while they were at rest, while the functional movement analysis total scores after fatigue were 13.78 ±2.29. It was statistically determined that fatigue negatively affects functional movement and balance skills (p<0.001). Preventing or reducing fatigue in footballers affects functional movement and balance skills and increases the risk of injury. Therefore, delaying fatigue and accelerating recovery may be important to prevent injuries.
