The Effect of Oculomotor Exercises in the Warm-up on Forehand & Backhand

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

30 tennis players aged 12-18, will be included in the study. After their normal warm-up, the participants will make 30 forehand and 30 backhand strokes. Forehand and backhand stroke accuracy rate will be calculated. After a week, additional oculo-motor exercises will be included in the warm-up and the forehand and backhand stroke accuracy rate will be calculated again. The hypothesis that there will be an improvement in forehand and backhand stroke accuracy after oculo-motor exercises will be tested.

Clinical Trial Description

30 tennis players aged 12-18, who practice tennis for at least 6 hours a week and have been playing regularly for at least 1 year will be included in the study. The positive effect of oculo-motor exercises to be included in the pre-tennis warm-up program on stroke performance will be investigated. As oculo-motor exercises, 3 different exercises will be applied: stepping exercise with eye movements and head rotation (The eyes are fixed on the thumb and the head rotates right and left and walks 10 steps forward and 10 steps back.), accommodation (First eyes fixed on the near target, then fixed on a target approximately 20-30 m away.) and pen tracking with 5 different movements (Horizontal, vertical, diagonal, circular, infinite eight). Participants will be given a backhand and forehand stroke evaluation consisting of a total of 60 strokes, 30 forehand and 30 backhand. In the first evaluation, the participants will be asked to do their regular warm-up program. The area between the baseline line, service line and singles side line on the tennis court will be marked and two target areas will be created, one on the right and one on the left. Players will be asked to take one stroke parallel and one stroke diagonally, and they will be expected to hit the marked target areas. One week later there will be a second evaluation. In the second evaluation, oculo-motor exercises will be included in the participants' warm-up programs and the stroke evaluation will be repeated. The data obtained will be evaluated whether oculo-motor exercises have a positive effect on the forehand and backhand stroke rate. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
