Brief Summary
The study will assess the associations between various asymmetries (strength, flexibility, balance, etc.) in different athletes. After the measurements, injury occurrence will be tracked prospectively for 1 year, and retrospective analysis will be performed as well. The main aim of the study is to determine the asymmetries that impose the biggest injury risk for athletes.

Athletes
For Asymmetry measurement, the group will consist of 200 athletes of different sports (the proportion not strictly predefined) - track and field, racket sports, ball sports, other team sports, swimming, running, cycling, dancing, ice skating, etc.
Interventions
There is no intervention, the study will prospectively assess associations between asymmetries and injury risk. Asymmetry measurement will be conducted, then injuries will be tracked.
