THE COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF BODY HEIGHT OF TOP ATHLETES AS A BASIS OF SELECTION AND ORIENTATION IN YOUNG AGE CATEGORIES
Journal Title: Sport Mont - Year 2011, Vol 0, Issue 31
Abstract
Body height, as a basic longitudinal dimension of skeleton, represents one of the most important factors in the process of orientation and selection in professional sport. The goal of this research is measurement and mutual comparison of body height in top athletes, so that we could, based on those results, determine the criteria which will help in the future in the process of selection and orientation of young athletes. The tested population consisted of 150 male athletes of top national competition rank, 57 football players, 42 handball players and 51 volleyball players. The gained data showed that there’s a statistically significant difference between each of these groups with a level of significance of 0.00, which suggests that there’s a need for controlled selection and orientation of athletes in young age categories, so that their anthropological characteristics could be used to the fullest and to allow achieving top results in preferred sports. Also, the gained results show the necessity for additional research on a larger population of members of sports examined in this study, as well as other sports.
