This study aimed to investigate the relationship between a functional movement screening (FMS) test and joint range of motion (ROM), balance (YBT), and countermovement jump (CMJ) performance in amateur soccer players. A study was conducted with 25 male amateur soccer players to assess their physical abilities using various tests. The tests included FMS, YBT, CMJ, ROM for shoulder extension, hip abduction, hip external rotation, and ankle dorsi/plantar flexion. Pearson’s correlation test was used to examine the association between the variables. A significant positive correlation between the FMS and CMJ (r=0.424, p<0.05), FMS and right foot balance YBT (r=0.471, p<0.05), left foot balance YBT (r=0.459, p<0.05), shoulder righ extension (r=0.608, p<0.05), shoulder left extension (r=0.559, p<0.01), hip right abduction (r=0.536, p<0.01), hip left abduction (r=0.485, p<0.05), hip right external rotation (r=0.619, p<0.01), hip external left rotation (r=0.622, p<0.01), ankle right dorsiflexion (r=0.597, p<0.01), ankle left dorsiflexion (r=0.608, p<0.01), ankle right plantar flexion (r=0.541, p<0.01), ankle left plantar flexion (r=0.519, p<0.01) ROM. A moderate positive correlation was observed between the FMS and CMJ, right-left YBT, and right-left hip abduction ROM. A highly positive correlation was noted between FMS and ROM for shoulder right-left extension, hip external right-left rotation, and ankle dorsi/plantar flexion on the right and left sides. In this context, coaches, athletic performance specialists, and physiotherapists can use YBT, ROM and CMJ tests as well as FMS to evaluate sports performance and injury risk.
