This study was conducted on 188 elite female athletes in 16 sports, comparing FMS™ results with other athletes, analyzing body imbalance and risk of injury.<BR> The results of the study were as follows. As a result of analyzing the difference in FMS score for each sport, the overall score was low in Hurdle Step and In-Line Lunge. ASLR recorded the highest score without distinction of sport, followed by Shoulder Mobility and Deep Squat. The overall score for each sport was the highest in athletics and the lowest in handball. In addition, the overall score was 14 points or less in all sports except athletics, curling, and wrestling and analyzed the difference in FMS scores for each sport, which showed that the ball sport recorded statistically lower score in Deep Squat compared to other sports. In the In-Line Lunge, individual sports recorded statistically higher scores than other sports and, shoulder Mobility scored statistically lower in combat sports than in other sports except for ball games. In the case of the overall score, winter sports scored the highest among the five sports, ball games recorded the statistically low score. This study result will provide more useful information for the prevention of sports injuries in elite athletes by presenting the relative results of dysfunction according to the asymmetry of athletes in each sport and event.
