For this purpose, 18 healthy male soccer players participated in the study. The mean age of the participants was 21,06  0,87 years, mean height 175,2  6,98 cm, mean body weight 67,70  5,96 kg. The study protocol was approved by the ethics committee of Selcuk University, Faculty of Sport Sciences. Dynamic balance tests with eyes open and eyes closed were used to evaluate the balance performances of the athletes. One-way Anova test and Paired Sample T test were used to evaluate the data obtained. As a result of the statistical tests, there was no significant difference between the positions in terms of balance performances (P>0,05). In addition, no significant differences were found in all other parameters except the eyes open Medial Lateral Stability Index(MLSI) parameter of midfielders (P>0,05). As a result, it can be concluded that the balance performances of soccer players competing as amateurs at different levels in soccer do not show positional differences as a result of our study.eng10.15314/tsed.1321095info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBalancedominantnon-dominantsoccerarticle252303309
