The Impact of a Proposed Training Program on Developing Some Elements of Physical Fitness for the 13-15 Year Age Group Among Female Basketball Players at The PACES Charity

Abstract

The study aimed to identify the effect of a proposed training program in developing some elements of physical fitness for the age group 13-15 years among female basketball players at Khatawat Charity Association. To achieve this, the study was conducted on a purposive sample of (30) female basketball players at Khatawat Foundation according to the records of Khatawat Charity Association during the sports season (2023-2024 AD). They were randomly distributed equally into two groups, the first experimental and the second control. The researcher used the experimental method and conducted pre- and post-measurements of the physical variables under study. To process the data and reach the results, the statistical program (SPSS) was used. The results showed statistically significant differences between the averages of the pre- and post-measurements in the effect of a proposed training program in developing some elements of physical fitness for the age group 13-15 years among female basketball players at the PACES Charity Foundation for all physical variables under study and in favor of the post-measurement among the members of the experimental group. The results showed that there were statistically significant differences between the averages of the pre- and post-measurements in the effect of the traditional program in developing some elements of physical fitness for the age group 13-15 years among female basketball players in the PACES Charitable Foundation on all physical variables under study and in favor of the post-measurement among the members of the control group. The results also showed that there were statistically significant differences in the post-measurement of all physical variables under study between the members of the experimental and control groups and in favor of the members of the experimental group. The study recommended conducting current recording studies on different playing groups and other individuals to study the preferred training program followed in developing the impact on basketball players, and recording more studies on the element at the skill level.
