Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of plyometric trainings made with medicine ball on some motoric and anthropometric features of basketball players. The research group (n = 24) was formed by 14-15 year old male basketball players licenced in Kocaeli Development Sports Club. The athletes were randomly assigned to the experiment (n = 12) and control (n = 12) groups. For the experimental group, in addition to the annual basketball training programmes, plyometric training was applied with medicine ball for 3 days a week for 8 weeks. The control group followed only annual basketball training programme. The tests used in the pre and post tests to measure the motor features of the basketball players participating in the study are standing long jump test, 30 m sprint test, hand grip test, sit and reach flexibility test and vertical jump tests. Skinfold thicknesses, girths and widths of the subjects were measured for anthropometric features. When the motor and anthropometric features of the experimental group and the control group were compared, no statistically significant difference was found (p> 0,05). There was no significant difference found in motor features as a results of the intra-group analysis of the experimental group (p>0.05). There was a significant difference found in anthropometric characteristics when the intra-group results of the experiment group was analyzed (p <0,05). In conclusion, it is seen that plyometric trainings with medicine ball have no positive effect on motor features in this age group but have positive effect on anthropometric features.
