The purpose of this study was to elucidate the relationship between shoulder girdle disorders of baseball players and the Hara test. We investigated 133 pitchers of the Gunma High School Baseball Association. The check lists were as follows: shoulder pain at the time of pitching; Hara test ( eleven items ). The correlation between shoulder pain at the time of pitching and each check list were examined. 31 pitchers had shoulder pain at the time of pitching. The significant relations were as follows: SSP test; impingement test; horizontal flexion test (HFT); elbow push test ( EPT ); hyper external rotation test ( HERT ). We thought that the useful check lists were the SSP test, impingement test, HFT, EPT and HERT. According to the logistic regression analysis,SSP test and impingement test and HERT were important items about shoulder girdle disorders of baseball players
