Abstract

This study was conducted to examine the
anthropometric, somatotype and motoric performance characteristics of 11-13
ages athletes who take interest in taekwondo in Akçaabat village of Trabzon.
For this purpose, 19 boys (age 12.16±0.69 years, height 151.71±7.03 cm, body
weight 46.19±10.54 kg) athletes participated in this study voluntarily.
Heath-Carter method was used to determine the somatotype characteristics
performance of the athletes, and 20-meter speed test, Flamingo balance test,
vertical jump test, standing long jump test, sit and reach test, 30 second
sit-up test, 30 second push-up test, Illinois agility test and Multistage
Shuttle Run aerobic power test were used to determine the motoric performance
of the athletes. Lewis nomogram was also used to determine anaerobic power of
the athletes. SPSS 25.0 statistical software was used for statistical analysis
of the data obtained in the study and the threshold for significance level was
p<0.05. Spearman correlation coefficient was used to determine the
correlations between motoric performance levels and somatotype structures of
the athletes. The findings of the research demonstrate that the athletes have
an endomorphic- mesomorph (4-5-3) structure and there were statistically significant
relationships between somatotype structures and motoric performance levels of
the athletes (p<0.05). As a result, body composition and somatotype
structures of the athletes affect sportive performance of them. We are of
opinion that the findings obtained through this study will contribute to the
available literature in the field of talent selection and direction on sport
and sports people

11-13 Yaş Erkek Taekwondo Sporcularının Somatotip Yapıları ve Performans Özellikleri Arasındaki İlişkinin İncelenmesi

Abstract

Bu araştırma, Trabzon
ili Akçaabat ilçesinde taekwondo sporu ile ilgilenen 11-13 yaş grubu
sporcuların antropometrik, somatotip ve motorik performans özelliklerinin
incelenmesi amacıyla yapıldı. Bu amaçla, 19 erkek (yaş 12,16±0,69 yıl, boy
151,71±7,03 cm, vücut ağırlığı 46,19±10,54 kg) sporcunun araştırmaya gönüllü
katılımı sağlandı. Sporcuların somatotip yapılarının tespit edilmesi amacıyla
Heath-Carter yöntemi; motorik performansların tespit edilmesi amacıyla 20 metre
sürat testi, Flamingo denge testi, dikey sıçrama testi, durarak uzun atlama
testi, otur eriş esneklik testi, 30 saniye mekik testi, 30 saniye şınav testi,
Illinois çeviklik testi ve Multistage Shuttle Run aerobik güç testi kullanıldı.
Sporcuların anaerobik güçleri ise, Lewis nomogramı ile tespit edildi.
Araştırmadan elde edilen verilerin istatistiksel analizi için SPSS 25.0 istatistik
programı kullanıldı ve anlamlılık düzeyi olarak p<0,05 değeri alındı.
Sporcuların motorik performans seviyeleri ile somatotip yapıları arasındaki
ilişkilerin tespit edilebilmesi için Spearman korelasyon katsayısı kullanıldı.
Araştırmadan elde edilen bulgular; sporcuların endomorfik- mezomorf (4-5-3) bir
yapıda olduğunu ve somatotip yapıları ile motorik performans seviyeleri arasında
anlamlı ilişkiler olduğunu gösterdi (p<0,05). Sonuç olarak, sporcuların
vücut kompozisyonu ve somatotip yapıları, onların sportif performanslarını
etkileyebilmektedir. Bu çalışmadan elde edilen sonuçların sporda yetenek seçimi
ve yönlendirme alanındaki mevcut literatüre ve ilgili spor insanlarına katkıda
bulunacağı kanaatindeyiz.
