Basketball is a competitive team sport, and both teams play on the same court. In basketball talent development, athlete selection is a crucial step that determines the quality of training and competition performance. Applying scientific standards helps to identify talented athletes early, creating a solid foundation for sustainable training and development. The research aims to determine the selection criteria for 11–12-year-old male basketball, track and field athletes at Thu Dau Mot City, Binh Duong Province, Vietnam. The study uses standard research methods in the field of sports science to address the research content, such as: document analysis and synthesis, interviews, pedagogical testing, pedagogical observation, anthropometry, psychological testing, and statistical mathematics. Research subjects: 100 male athletes aged 11-12 at Thu Dau Mot City, conducted at Thu Dau Mot City, Binh Duong Province, Vietnam, interviewed 20 individuals (experts, scientists, professionals, coaches, and basketball managers). The results identified 14 criteria for selecting male basketball players aged 11-12 at Thu Dau Mot City, Binh Duong Province, Vietnam, including: Morphology (2 criteria): Standing height, Arm span; Physical fitness (5 criteria): Standing high jump, 20m sprint, T-Test, Hexagon jump, Defensive slide; Technical skills (4 criteria): Zigzag dribbling, 30-second ball movement, 2-point moving shooting - 5 positions, 3-point moving shooting - 5 positions; Sports psychology and motivation (1 criterion): Observation of experimental competition performance; Development potential (2 criteria): Training progress, Intensive training adaptability.
