CORRELATION-STRUCTURAL MODEL OF PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT, PHYSICAL DISABILITY, SPECIFIC PREPARATION AND SOME MENTAL QUALITIES IN 15-16-YEAR-OLD BASKETBALL PLAYERS.

It is known that both the morphofunctional indicators and the level of development of specific physical qualities have a huge influence on the sports achievement in basketball. Their values determine the extent to which the genetic predisposition of each competitor combined with his technical-tactical preparation will be realized in the training and especially in the competition activity. It has also been proven that the complex development of motor skills in primary education is extremely important in laying the foundations for sports specialization at a later stage. There fore, in the present study we apply a correlation analysis, through which to establish the presence of relationships between two or more variables and to estimate the degree of dependence between the variables. The purpose of the study is to establish and compare the changes that occurred in the correlation structure of physical development, physical performance, specific preparedness and some mental qualities in 15-16-year-old basketball players after an applied model of basketball training. To achieve the goal, the following tasks were set: 1. To establish the correlation structures of physical development, physical capacity, specific preparedness and some mental qualities in the two studied groups. 2. To analyze the correlation-structural models of the experimental and control groups. The object of the research is the physical development, physical capacity, specific preparation and some mental qualities of the 15-16-year-old female basketball players. The subject of the experiment is the influence of the basketball training model on 15-16-year-old female basketball players. The contingent of the study are 15-16-year-old female basketball players, distributed in equal number - 15 in each group. The experimental group includes 15 basketball players from BC "Rositsa", Pavlikeni, who work according to a developed basketball training model, three times a week. The control group consists of 15 girls from "Bacho Kiro" Secondary School, Pavlikeni, who practice basketball, also three times a week. The research was conducted within one academic and training year. According to some authors, the relationship between height, weight and BMI is logical, which is confirmed by their persistence after cessation of exposure to a large and extremely large degree. In a study by M. TsankovaKaloyanova and G. Tomov among female basketball players of the same age studied, it was found that the signs "Running between stances" and "Running - shuttle" are included in the most addictions, which carry information about the level of development of speed endurance. The emergence of these significant and moderate dependencies is due, in our opinion, to the application of various effective basketball training models. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
