علاقة بعض القياسات الأنثروبومترية بأداء مهارتي التصويب والتمرير لدى لاعبي كرة السلة الناشئين بنادي اليرموك بالدوري الليبي

Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between anthropometric measurements (such as height, arm length, and shoulder circumference) and the performance of shooting and passing skills among junior basketball players. The researchers employed a descriptive-analytical approach, involving a sample of 21 players from Al-Yarmouk Club in the Municipality of Janzour.​

Findings revealed a positive correlation between certain body measurements—particularly height and shoulder circumference—and the execution of shooting and passing skills. Additionally, upper body strength, especially in the shoulders and arms, was found to significantly influence the enhancement of these skills.​

The study recommends the development of training programs focusing on strengthening the upper body muscles and utilizing anthropometric measurements as criteria for player selection, especially in early training stages. It also emphasizes the importance of improving technical performance in players with below-average physical measurements by enhancing their technical and tactical skills.​

Furthermore, the study suggests conducting broader research encompassing larger samples and additional variables such as speed and flexibility to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the impact of physical characteristics on athletic performance
