Developing shoulder strength and flexibility is a must for the functional athlete. The shoulder is technically a "ball and socket" joint, but it is definitely not as supported as the deep socket in your hip. The tradeoff for stability is a larger range of motion, of which the shoulder has a wide degree. Strengthening the muscles supporting the shoulder girdle, including the infamous rotator cuff, will limit shoulder injury which is relatively common in athletics.
