The effect of 8 weeks volleyball basic technical training on some motor skills in boys

The aim of the study is to examine the effects of 8-week volleyball basic training exercises applied to boys on some motoric properties. Fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth grade male students, aged 10-14 years, participated in the study. Height and weight measurements of the children participating in the study were taken. 9 stations consisting of Eurofit reverses (flamingo balance test, standing long jump, back dynamometer, leg dynamometer, sit-up test, 20 m speed test, claw strength test, push-up test, flexibility skill park were applied. parkour score was recorded. Basic volleyball training was applied to the experimental group 2 days a week and 40 minutes a day for 8 weeks.At the end of 8 weeks, eurofit tests consisting of 9 stations including fine and gross motor skills were applied to the experimental and control groups Before choosing the tests to be applied to the data obtained in the study, the shapiro-wilk normality test was applied to check whether the error terms showed normal distribution (p>0.05).Intergroup comparison independent sample t-test and analyzed by t-test in paired groups. The statistical analysis and interpretation of the data were accepted as significant (p<0.05) at the significance level. In all statistical calculations spss 21.0 v. Statistics package program was used. When the pre-test and post-test parameters of the experimental and control groups were compared, a significant difference was found in the results of flexibility and push-ups, and it can be said that these tests showed improvement (p<0.05). When the performance parameters of the experimental group were examined, there were some significant differences in sit ups, 20 meters speed, flexibility, left handgrip strength, back strength, leg strength and push-up data (p<0.05). No significant difference was found in control group between pre-post tests (p>0.05). As a result, it can be said that 8-weeks volleyball basic tecnical training have positive effects on the motoric features and physical development on boys.
