Pubertal Maturation Observational Scale. This checklist was used to determine the pubertal status of athletes included in the study. Positive answers were counted as 1 point: if an athlete had ≤1 point, she was considered as prepubertal; if an athlete had between 2 and 4 points, she was considered pubertal; and if an athlete had ≥5 total points, she was considered postpubertal.
