Relations of Body Dimensions and Specific Motor Abilities of Female Volleyball Players in Relation to the Playing Position
Apstrakt:
The subject of research is the physical dimensions and motor abilities of young volleyball players, and the
problem is the relationship between these anthropological characteristics and specific playing positions in volleyball. The
study included 55 female volleyball players aged 14 to 16 who had been actively training for at least 2 to 4 years. Five (5)
dimensions were tested to assess volleyball players’ morphological status, as well as the parameters of 5 specific motor
tests to assess explosive power, dexterity, and flexibility. Correlation analysis revealed a strong, statistically significant
relationship between specific body dimensions and specific motor abilities from various tests. This is especially true for
volleyball players’ body height (ATV) and arm span (RAR), as well as their maximum, reach a height of the arms (MD1RM)
and (MD2RM), in the spike (MDSM), and in the block (MDBLZ). Only the female volleyball sample’s body weight (ATT)
was unaffected and had no relations to any of the observed parameters
