Kayak polo (KP) is a sport that, as a breviary, can be defined as the union between water polo and canoeing. The objective of this study is to compare anthropometric parameters, joint assessment, strength and functional capacity between two groups of KP players from the Valencian Community. The sample will be divided into a Sub21 group and a Senior group. Anthropometric variables (body mass index [BMI], percentage of fat mass, waist - hip index [CHF], body perimeters ...), shoulder assessment (Range of movement in rotations, Scapular Dyskinesis Test [SDT]) will be assessed. glenohumeral instability ...), hip assessment (modified Thomas test), strength (Hand Grip Strength test and upper limb thrust), lower limb power (Counter Movement Jump [CMJ]) and functional capacity (1 'push-ups for limbs upper and 1 'Sit-to-Stand test for lower limbs).
