The experiment deals with young people aged 13-14 years, male. Basketball team active and inactive, active group in addition to regular classes; they also practice basketball in clubs within the city. The experiment contains a total of eight morphological variables; five variables are the basic motor tests, while three tests of motor skills, situational. In this research, it applied test method T-group basketball between active and inactive, and morphological variables of specific movement skills. The study includes a total of 60 entities male group of 30 active students and other inactive group, who have undergone the tests provided for this study. Keywords: young basketball, basic motor skills tests and specific tool testing instruments, methods of T-test etc.

In this study, it was aimed to compare the anthropometric characteristics, somatotype profiles, some biomotorical performances and basketball-specific skill levels of basketball players who were at different age levels, in adolescence period and were training with the same training methodology. The participants were 41 basketball players who were in the age range of 12-14 years, regularly trained and played basketball in the local youth setup leagues. The participants' body height, body weight, vertical jump, 1-mile run, aerobic power, anaerobic power, skinfold thickness (triceps, subscapula, suprailiac, calf), circumference (biceps flexion, calf), diameter measurements (humerus bicondylar, femur bicondylar) were made. Basketball-specific skills were determined using the Harrison Basketball Skill Test while the somatotype characteristics were determined according to the Heath-Carter method. Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Shapiro-Wilk tests were used to determine whether the data were suitable for normal distribution. One-Way ANOVA test was used to examine the differences between the variables and Tukey test was used to investigate the cause of differences. Normality tests and other statistical analyses were performed at the significance level of 0.05. A significant difference was noted in humerus bicondylar diameters according to the age levels of basketball players and a statistical difference was detected in the data of vertical jump and anaerobic power in terms of biomotorical performance (p <0,05). The cause of this difference was found to be due to the fact that the humerus diameter, vertical jump and anaerobic power values in the age group of 14 age years were higher than the values of the other two age groups. No difference was found when the Umut Canlı COMPARISON OF ANTHROPOMETRIC CHARACTERISTICS, BIOMOTORICAL PERFORMANCE AND SKILL LEVELS OF 12-14 YEARS OLD BASKETBALL PLAYERS European Journal of Physical Education and Sport Science-Volume 3 │ Issue 4 │ 2017 14 somatotype profiles and basketball-specific skill levels were compared according to age levels (p> 0,05). In conclusion, in our study group, we did not find any difference among other anthropometric characteristics, somatotype profiles, and basketball specific skills except humerus diameter. We suggest that the difference in the vertical jump and anaerobic power values of biomotorical performance is due to the increase in the strength ratio along with the increase in age level.

This study aims to examine the effect of 12-week regular basic basketball trainings on anthropometric measurements and vertical jump of children aged 8-10. The experimental group of the research consisted of 40 children whose average age was 9.04 ± 0.77 years and the control group consisted of 38 children whose average age was 8.97±0.72 years. Ability selection was made in order to determine these 78 children forming the experimental and control group. Pretest measurements of 40 children in the experimental group were made before basic basketball trainings that would last for 12 weeks and posttest measurements were made after trainings. The same measurements were taken from the other 38 children in the control group, yet any training was not applied to them. Basic basketball education was given in line with complete recovery principle to the experimental group for 12 weeks-three days a week and 90 minutes a day. SPSS 15.00 package program was used in order to evaluate the data obtained from the study and form the tables. Student's t test was used in the comparison of the experimental and control groups. Also, Wilcoxon test was used in the comparison of each group's pretests and posttests. The values of p<0.01 and p<0.05 were accepted as significance level for all statistical analysis. As a result, there was not a significant differences found between anthropometric measurements and vertical jump of the children after the basketball training. Keywords: Basketball education, training, anthropometric measurements, vertical jump.

The aim of this study was to determine the relation between motoric and specific motoric basketball skills in physical education classes for elementary school students. The sample was taken from a population of boys and girls in four elementary schools in Niš. Boys (66) and girls (58), have been students of elementary school, 10 years old and all of them have been attending regular physical education classes three times a week. For the assessment of motoric abilities, a set of 12 motoric tests was applied: Explosive strength: squat jump, squat jump arms swing and drop jump; Speed: 20m running from a low start, orbiting hand and orbiting leg; Coordination: jumping over the horizontal rope, envelope test and figure „8“ with bending; Accuracy: darts, shooting with the ball at horizontal target and stiletto. For the assessment of specific motoric basketball skills a set of six tests was applied: elevations precision of ball passing with two hands, horizontal precision of ball passing with two hands, orbiting ball around the body, orbiting ball through the legs (figure „8“), dribble around a central circle of the basketball court and dribble two "small eights" around two adjacent circles of basketball court. In data processing canonical correlation and regression analysis were used. The results showed that motoric abilities significantly contributed to success of specific motoric tests performance both with boys and also with girls.

This study aims to determine the development of anthropometric and biomotor components of male basketball athletes of FIK UNP in 2020. This research is an ex post facto research. The data collection technique used was the measurement test. The research subjects of all male basketball athletes of FIK UNP were 15 athletes. There are two research instruments, namely anthropometric measurements and biomotor measurements. Anthropometric measurements using body weight and scales. Biomotor measurements used are sprint, sit and reach, handgrip, push up, sit up, back up, run test, wall pass, Multistage Fitness Test and vertical jump. The analysis technique used descriptive statistics with frequency in percentage form. The results showed that the body mass index was 22.3 in the normal category, the rate of velocity increased by 0.15 seconds, the level of flexibility increased by 1.00 cm, the strength level in the right finger muscle increased in strength in the right finger muscle by 0.85 kg,...

The aim of the present study was to compare the selected basketball and volleyball male players. Total forty subjects were randomly selected (20 from basketball and 20 from volleyball) from various schools of Ghazipur District of Uttar Pradesh were taken as a sample. Th ranged between 15-18 years. Physical fitness tests were used to measure the selected physical fitness variables of players. For analysis of the data Mean & Standard Deviation were calculated and to examine the significance difference between the groups mean of different physical fitness variables, independent t level of confidence was set at 0.05 level. Study concluded that insignificant difference found between the means of selected physical fitness variables such as speed, ag and volleyball male players.
