Passive glenohumeral internal rotation (IR), external rotation (ER), and horizontal adduction (HA) ROM were measured with the scapula stabilized and used to categorize participants with\/without external rotation gain (ERG), external rotation insufficiency (ERI), glenohumeral internal rotation deficit (GIRD), pathological GIRD, and posterior shoulder tightness (PST) before the competitive season.
