Asymmetry (% AL) for the inferolateral reach direction between the throwing and non-throwing arm by age group. The dotted line corresponds to the cut-off value of ≥ 7.75% AL that is related to an increased risk of sustaining a time-loss musculoskeletal injury [2]. Unfilled white circles represent single player values and filled red circles depict group mean values. AL arm length, IL inferolateral
