- Abstract
Aim: The aim of the study was to analyse the evolution of physical abilities of mid level basketball players during a 2 year period (age groups: cadet and junior). Method. 15 male basketball players were observed during 2 years: in the last year of cadet age group (U16) and in the first year of junior age group (U18). The test trials were performed 4 times (M) along the season. [1. September (pre-season), 2. December, 3. April and 4. July, for 8 different tests in total]. The test set was as follows: 20 m sprint test (MST), agility test (AGIT), medicinal ball throwing 5 kg (5KGT), vertical jump (CMJ), flexibility Sit and Reach test (SAR) and the Course Navette (CN). Results. The players improved their MST: [1º M: 3.16 ± 0.27 m/s Vs. 4º M: 2.87 ± 0.17 m/s; (p<0.05)]; in CMJ, statistical differences were observed between 1º and 8º M [1º M: 32.57 ± 2.8 cm Vs. 8º M: 42.14 ± 3.8 cm;(p<0.05)]; the results of SAR test showed a decrease (1º M: 13.14 ± 12.27 cm to 8º M: 6.42 ± 7.36 cm); other significant differences were also oberved when 1º M and 8º M were compared for CNT [1º M: 10.36 ± 1.7 stages Vs. 8º M: 12.5 ± 1.4 stages; (p<0.05)]. Conclusions. Significant improvements were unvealed for neuromuscular ability, aerobic power and flexibility.
