The purpose of this paper is to recognizing the effect of rehabilitation exercises using rubber ropes and moving shrink in rehabilitating the torn ligament injury in the ankle joint for basketball players, identifying the differences between the results of the pre-and post-tests of the experimental and control groups in the rehabilitation of partial rupture of the calcaneal ligament of the ankle joint and the preservation of muscle strength and range of motion among basketball players, and to identify the differences in the results of the post-tests between the control and experimental groups in the rehabilitation of partial rupture of the calcaneal ligament of the ankle joint and the maintenance of muscular strength and range of motion among basketball players. The researcher used the experimental method with the design of equal groups for its suitability in solving the research problem and achieving its objectives. The research sample was chosen by the intentional method, amounting to (10) of those with torn ankle joint basketball players in Baghdad governorate clubs, and the ages of the injured athletes ranged between (20-22) years. The researcher divided the population into two equal samples (control and experimental), with (5) patients for the experimental group who learned the moving contraction and rubber ropes, and (5) patients representing (the control group) according to the traditional curriculum. One of the most important results reached by the researcher is that: Rehabilitation exercises using rubber ropes and moving shrinks had a great role in rehabilitating the torn ligament injury in the ankle joint for basketball players, and rubber ropes and moving shrink are among the successful resistances in strengthening the muscles surrounding the ankle joint and making movements according to the motor path of performance in the game of basketball. One of the most important recommendations recommended by the researchers is that: Adoption of rehabilitative exercises using rubber ropes and moving contractions because they had a major role in rehabilitating the torn ligament injury in the ankle joint for basketball players, and emphasis on the inclusion of the rehabilitation sessions from rubber ropes and moving shrink, as they are successful resistances in strengthening the muscles surrounding the ankle joint and making movements according to the kinetic path of performance in the basketball game.
