N2  - [Purpose] This study aimed to assess the reliability of the Functional Movement  Screen and explore whether this evaluation tool can predict the risks of personal  injuries in Japanese soccer players. [Participants and Methods] Seventy-five  Japanese college soccer players who participated in our 1 year prospective cohort  study underwent a Functional Movement Screen assessment. Demographic data, athletic  characteristics, and types and frequency of injuries sustained, were analyzed with  the assessment results. [Results] There was no significant difference in the mean  Functional Movement Screen composite scores between genders. Although the Functional  Movement Screen showed excellent inter-rater reliability (0.92), low overall  internal consistency (0.35) was observed. A maximum score of 3 in straight leg raise  occurred in 94% of the females and was considered a ceiling effect. None of the  cut-off point scores of the Functional Movement Screen were associated with the  number of overall injuries, lower limb injuries, and traumatic injuries, or time to  return to play. The Functional Movement Screen composite score of ≤15 represented  the maximum sensitivity of 76.92% and specificity of 34.78% with 0.56 in the area  under the curve. [Conclusion] Functional Movement Screen composite scores do not  have sufficient sensitivity and specificity for predicting injuries in Japanese  college soccer players.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
