Basketball is a team sport that requires specific motor skills to develop different technical-tactical actions. Within the specific movements, landings after a jump are very common and require optimal technical performance, good stability and symmetry. Alterations in these components have been linked to an increased risk of injury. The objective of the present study is to identify functional alterations in the jump / landing technique that basketball players present. A cross-sectional study carried out from Septembre to Juny. The participants were basketball players aged 12 to 14 years. The main variables were: ankle stability, dynamic knee valgus, central stability, symmetry of the lower extremities. The tests used were: Abalakov Test, Single Hop Test for distance, Single-leg vertical countermovement jump test, Cross Over Hop test, One Leg Balance Test.
