Abstract:

The aim of this study is to compare and study the relationship between certain anthropometric and physical fitness parameters of male athletes playing in high school teams in different sports. 109 male athletes aged 14-17 participated voluntarily in this study (24 football, 22 basketball, 20 basketball, 23 hentai, 20 table tennis). Athletes’ height, body weight measurement and body mass index (VKI) calculated, athletes’ speed of 20 m (s), flamingo balance test, hand capture strength test (kg) (right-left), 20 m moist test (ml/kg/min), flexibility (cm) and vertical jumping (cm) test. The analysis of the study used SPSS 20.0 and was done at a 95% confidence level. The analysis of the data used the Kruskal-Wallis test, Mann-Whitney test and Spearman correlation. In anthropometric measurements, the size and body weight average differ significantly by groups, while the VKI measurement does not differ significantly by groups (p<0,05). Flexibility, 20 m speed, K. K. right hand, K. K. left hand, balance, vertical jump and max VO2 work groups have significant differences (p<0,05). The relationship between the parameters of anthropometric and physical conformity in different sports has been identified. As a result, the industry-specific differences have been identified in some anthropometric and physical conformity parameters of male athletes playing in high school teams in different sports branches. It has been shown that size, body weight and VKI have an impact on physical fitness parameters. These differences are believed to be derived from the different physical characteristics and training programs that the sport industry requires.
