      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Not blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Prevention, Randomization description: In this study, simple randomization method is used and the randomization unit is "individual". Random sequence is generated in Excel software using RAND function and MOD ROW function is used for grouping. In order to observe allocation concealment, each individual's allocation code is placed in illegible and sealed envelopes after being determined in Excel.</study_design>

      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Intervention group: The shoulder injury prevention exercises were developed by the Oslo Sports Trauma Research Center. The exercise group will perform this protocol as a dry-land warm-up—consisting of three 20-minute sessions per week—over an eight-week period. A 360-degree goniometer will be used to measure shoulder internal and external rotation range of motion, while a closed-kinetic-chain functional test will be employed to assess performance during both pre-test and post-test evaluations. Intervention 2: Control group: During the study period, the control group will not receive any intervention and will continue with their routine exercises; additionally, a 360-degree goniometer will be used to measure the range of motion for shoulder internal and external rotation, and a closed-chain functional test will be employed to assess performance in both the pre-test and post-test phases.</i_freetext>

      <prim_outcome>Closed-chain upper extremity functional test. Timepoint: Before the intervention and eight weeks later. Method of measurement: To perform this test, two strips are placed parallel on the ground, spaced 90 centimeters apart. The hands are positioned on the strips in a push-up stance; then, while maintaining balance on one hand, the other hand (the "moving" hand) is lifted from the ground, moved toward the hand providing support, and used to touch the strip beneath that supporting hand. The hand then returns to the initial push-up position, and the movement is repeated with the other hand. The action is performed continuously and alternately for both hands over a period of 15 seconds.</prim_outcome>
