Abstract
Introduction: The complexion of the foot and the ankle is the ending part of the lower extremity which work together and as a whole, provide stability and duplex movement. The ankle and the leg have the capability to perform specific functions such as carrying the weight of the body in the standing position against the power of gravity, moving the body to the front and creating stability for keeping the balance and controlling the posture. The purpose of the present study is Symmetry Comparison Balance performance and plantar pressure Distribution in Pronator Athletes Girls.

Methods: In this quasi- experimental study, 34 athlete’s adolescent girls (15 Pronator Athletes girls and 19 normal Athletes girls) between 14 and 17 ages were selected as simple. The foot pressure and Navicular System was used to determine Drop. The pressure distribution by foot pressure device (PT-Scan4452F100) and the symmetry between the two limbs and balance function by symmetry Index and Balance performance formula were used. Data analysis was Independent t-test to compare the variables of athlete’s pronator girls and normal by SPSS V.23 software at a significant level of (P≥ 0.05).

Results: The results Symmetry Comparison Balance performance and plantar pressure Distribution showed that, there was significant difference in Symmetry metatarsal 1 (P≥ 0.03) and Symmetry medial hell foot (P= 0.04) and presser of hell foot percent Symmetry (P= 0.04), Symmetry hell foot impels (P= 0.04) and rotation hell foot balance (P= 0.04) in two groups Athletes Girls .Hence, more scientific evidence is needed to generalize the results.
Conclusion: the results of the present study showed that there is no difference between symmetry in metatarsal 1 and Symmetry medial hell Athletes girls with ankle pronation disorders
