(1) Objective: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of two neurodynamic sliding techniques on hamstring muscle flexibility of healthy soccer players. (2)Design: Design of this study is randomized single blind clinical trial. (3) Setting and conduct: Participants are collected among the players of Shiraz football teams. The evaluation of the participants will conduct by another examiner who is unclear from the categorization of the study groups and type of treatment.30 individuals will be assigned by block randomization either to control, interventions 1 and 2 groups and are not aware that they will belong to each groups. (4) Participants including major eligibility criteria: Inclusion criteria are Men aged 17 to 35 years ;having the limitation of motion at least 15 degrees in the knee joint (90-90 degrees). Participants have hamstring muscle damage in 2 months ago and also neck or waist pain will be excluded from this study.(5) Intervention: each three groups will receive stretching exercises during a week 3 days per week). (6)Main outcome measure (variable): Range of motion via goniometer will be measured for each individual in the beginning ,3th and a week after 3th.
