AB  - This study was conducted to investigate the functional movement screening scores of athletes in three different branches (volleyball, soccer, basketball). 35 male athletes participated in the study. Age, height, body weight, Body Mass Index (BMI) and Functional Movement Screening (FMS) were analyzed. As a result of the study, it was found that the average total FMS test scores of the volleyball group was 16.88±3.05, the football group was 17.66±2.09, the basketball group was 18.00±2.56 and the average total FMS test scores of the three groups was 17.57±2.47. When the FMS test scores of the groups were compared, a statistically significant difference was found in favor of the basketball group in the Deep Squat score (p<0.05), while no significant difference was found in other scores and total score (p>0.05). It was also found that the highest number of players showing asymmetry was in the Hurdle Step (20%) and the lowest number of players showing asymmetry was in the Active Straight Leg Raise (2.8%). In addition, 42.8% of the athletes showed asymmetry, branches while 57.2% did not show asymmetry. In line with these findings, it was seen that the FMS total scores of the athletes in the three branches were above the threshold value (14 points) and basketball players had better total scores than volleyball and soccer players. In addition, since more than half (57.2%) of the athletes in the three branches did not have asymmetry, it can be said that the injury risk rate is relatively lower in these players.

N2  - Bu çalışma üç farklı branştaki (voleybol, futbol, basketbol) sporcuların fonksiyonel hareket taraması skorlarının incelenmesi amacıyla yapılmıştır. Çalışmaya 35 erkek sporcu katılmıştır. Çalışmaya katılan sporcuların yaş, boy uzunluğu, vücut ağırlığı, beden kitle indeksi (BKİ) ve fonksiyonel hareket taraması (FHT) incelenmiştir. Çalışma sonucunda voleybol takımının 16,88±3,05, futbol takımının 17,66±2,09, basketbol takımının 18,00±2,56 ve üç takımın ortalama toplam FHT test skorları 17,57±2,47 olduğu bulunmuştur. Takımların FHT test skorları karşılaştırıldığında, Deep Squat skorunda basketbol takımı lehine istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık tespit edilirken (p<0,05), diğer skorlarda ve toplam skorda anlamlı bir farklılık bulunamamıştır (p>0,05). Ayrıca en fazla asimetri gösteren oyuncu sayısının Hurdle Step (%20) hareketinde ve en az asimetri gösteren oyuncu sayısının Active Straight Leg Rasise (%2,8) hareketinde olduğu bulunmuştur. Buna ek olarak sporcuların %42,8’i asimetri gösterirken, %57,2’sinde asimetri gözlenmemiştir. Bu bulgular doğrultusunda üç takımdaki sporcuların FHT toplam skorlarının eşik değerinin (14 puan) üstünde olduğu ve basketbol oyuncularının voleybol ve futbol oyuncularına göre daha iyi toplam skora sahip olduğu görülmüştür. Ayrıca üç branştaki sporcuların yarısından fazlasında (%
