This thesis is focused on knee joint instability. This issue is the most discussed theme in professional sport in context of knee injuries. The claims on knee biomechanics are enlarging natures and it leads in knee injuries and all structures of it. Knee joint is considered as the most difficult joint in human body. Knee joint consist of three bones femur, tibia and patella. Their surfaces creates femur - tibial and femur patellar joints. This bachelor thesis is aimed on knee injuries problematic, especially on knee instability, which is common in women softball players in extraleague.

The main task of this thesis was to create a specific list of strengthening and stabilizing exercises. The exercises was given to two groups of woman softball players. First group was orientated on strengthening muscles of knee joint with special aid from "Propriofoot Concept". The second group was working with aid called "čočka". Special exercises (SSC) was part of common training during winter set up before the season and particulary in three months period (January to March). The next aim was to compare the effectivity of methods of both groups. Practical part was utilized by quantitative method. The researched set of extraleague softball players was between 18 22 years old. For a good quality output was accomplished my supervision during one exercise. Women have to practise three times a week. I made a supervisor during the exercise for once a week. SSC had about 15 - 20 minutes.
