Abstract:
This study was emphasized on assessment of flexible flat foot in athletes, which may provide baseline information about a general lack of awareness among the athletes about the flat feet and its functional relationship between the biomechanics of the lower extremity and the structure of the arches of the foot which may potentially affect the optimal running, jumping, hopping, balance and co-ordination which are important for the effective physical performance and training of the athletes. [3]Due to these repetitive activities there is a risk of injuries which leads to the postural changes or postural malalignment, because of which there is improper biomechanical action of the joint, which creates stress on the joints and undue stretching of the soft tissues
