In this technique, the muscle to be treated is brought into a tense position. For facilitation, the tape should be directed from the origin to the insertion direction and applied in the direction of movement. Considering the stretchability of the tape, it will be applied with minimal tension (20-30%), and the end point of the tape will be rounded to prevent peeling of the edges and to increase the length of the tape application.

However, there is no consensus among researchers and practitioners regarding kinesiological taping, particularly its application to improve athletic performance. This study aimed to investigate the acute changes in functional performance of volleyball players who underwent kinesiological taping. Designed as a randomized controlled experimental study, it planned to include 24 licensed female volleyball players from Anadolu Marmara Sports Schools. Players meeting the inclusion criteria were randomized into kinesiological tape (n:12) and sham (dummy-ineffective) tape (n:12) groups. The assessment will consist of a general warm-up program followed by the single-arm hop test for upper extremity strength, speed, and stability; the closed kinetic chain upper extremity endurance test for strength and endurance; and the medicine ball throw test for functional strength. Following the initial assessment, tests will be repeated immediately after facilitative taping of the pectoralis major and anterior deltoid muscles of the athletes. SPSS 24 statistical program will be used for data analysis. Continuous variables will be presented as mean ± standard deviation, and qualitative variables as number and percentage (%). If the assumptions for parametric tests are met, the Independent Samples t-test will be used for comparing independent groups, and the Paired Samples t-test will be used for comparing dependent groups. If the assumptions for parametric tests are not met, the Mann-Whitney U test will be used for comparing independent groups, and the Wilcoxon test will be used for comparing dependent groups. Statistical significance will be accepted at p≤0.05. This study is expected to contribute to performance-enhancing practices in volleyball players by providing evidence-based data on the application method and effectiveness of kinesiological taping for functional performance.",[62,22,63],"Volleyball","Functional Performance",[65,66,67,68,69],"volleyball","kinesiology taping","performance","endurance","speed","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2026-02-13",{"date":73,"type":74},"2026-02-20","ACTUAL",{"date":73,"type":56},{"date":77,"type":56},"2026-04-20",{"name":5,"class":6}]
