Abstract
Badminton involves explosive movements, rapid directional changes, and frequent jumping activities, which increase the risk of ankle injuries, particularly ankle sprains. Ankle stability plays a crucial role in maintaining performance and preventing injuries. The use of ankle braces as external support is considered capable of improving stability; however, its effectiveness in non-professional players still requires scientific evidence. Objective: This study aims to analyze the effect of ankle brace usage on ankle stability in non-professional badminton players and to determine whether ankle brace application can significantly improve ankle stability. Methods: This study employed a quasi-experimental design with a one group pre-test post-test approach involving 21 male respondents selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using the Y Balance Test before and after a three-week intervention of ankle brace usage. The data were analyzed using a paired sample t-test. Results: The results showed an improvement in ankle stability, indicated by an increase in the average scores of the Y Balance Test, with a mean difference of 17.52 in the left limb and 11.90 in the right limb. Statistical analysis revealed a p-value < 0.05, indicating a significant effect of ankle brace usage on ankle stability. These findings suggest that ankle braces are effective in improving functional ankle stability. Conclusion:The use of ankle braces is proven to be effective in enhancing ankle stability and can be recommended as a preventive measure against injuries in non-professional badminton players. Future studies are recommended to include a control group and a larger sample size to obtain more robust results.
