Abstract

Yüzmede güç, kuvvet, denge, esneklik ve yüzme hızı gibi belirli özellikler arasındaki korelasyon seçim sürecinde önemli bir rol oynayabilir. Eurofit test bataryası gibi testler bu parametrelerin değerlendirilmesinde tahmin değerlerine ilişkin fikir verebilir. Ancak çok az çalışma, Eurofit test bataryasından elde edilen verilerin yüzme hızı arasındaki korelasyona odaklanmıştır. Bu yüzden bu çalışmanın amacı, 7-11 yaş aralığındaki yüzücülerin eurofit test bataryası ile serbest stil yüzme süreleri arasındaki ilişkiyi belirlemektir. Çalışmaya 14’ü erkek 16’sı kız sporcu olmak toplam üzere 30 sporcu katılmıştır. Testler Eurofit Test Bataryası'nın belirlediği talimatlar doğrultusunda yönergelerine uygun bir şekilde uygulanmıştır. Tüm sporcuların normallik dağılım durumlarına göre tüm parametreler arasındaki ilişki gücü için korelasyon testi uygulanmıştır ve korelasyon katsayısına bakılmıştır. Normal dağılım gösteren parametreler için Pearson korelasyon test türü ve normal dağılım göstermeyen parametreler için Spearman Rank korelasyon test türü uygulanmıştır. Bulgularda serbest still yüzme süresi ile denge, kol hareket süresi (sn) arasında pozitif yönde anlamlı korelasyon bulunurken esneklik, uzun atlama, el kavrama ve 30 s mekik (adet) parametleri arasında negatif yönde anlamlı korelasyon bulunmuştur. Sonuç olarak, ilkokula giden yüzücülerin serbest still yüzme dereceleri ile denge ve kol hareket süratinin pozitif ilişkili, 30 s mekik (adet), el kavrama kuvveti, uzun atlama ve esnekliğin ise negatif ilişkili olduğu söylenebilir.

Abstract

The correlation between specific attributes such as strength, power, balance, flexibility, and swimming speed can play a significant role in the selection process. Tests like the Eurofit test battery can provide insights into the evaluation of these parameters. However, very few studies have focused on the correlation between data obtained from the Eurofit test battery and swimming speed. Therefore, the aim of this study is to determine the relationship between the Eurofit test battery results and freestyle swimming times in the age range of 7-11 years for swimmers.
A total of 30 athletes participated in the study, including 14 males and 16 females. The tests were conducted according to the instructions of the Eurofit Test Battery in a manner consistent with its guidelines. Correlation tests were applied to assess the strength of relationships among all parameters based on the normal distribution status of the athletes' data. Pearson correlation test type was used for parameters exhibiting a normal distribution, while Spearman Rank correlation test type was employed for parameters not showing a normal distribution. In the findings, a significant positive correlation was found between free still swimming time and balance, arm movement time (sec), while a significant negative correlation was found between flexibility, long jump, hand grip and 30 s sit-up. As a result, it can be said that balance and arm movement speed are positively correlated with free still swimming time of elementary school swimmers, whereas 30 s sit-up (sec), hand grip strength, long jump and flexibility are negatively correlated.
