Analysis of agility, reaction time and balance variables at badminton players aged 9-14 years
Abstract
Aim: The aim of this study was investigated agility, static and dynamic balance and reaction time variables of badminton players aged between 9-14 and relate with among variables.
Material and Methods: In Samsun, 19 males (sport age, 3.42±1.64 years) and 12 females (3.00±1.28 years) active badminton players were voluntarily participated in who are in 9-14 ages range. Agility was measured by “T” test, CSMI-Tecnobody Pk-252 isokinetic balance system measuring instrument was used to test static balance and dynamic balance and Mozart Lafayette reaction measuring instrument was used to test visual and auditory reaction times of players. Spearman correlation analysis was applied so as to correlation analysis. The level of significance was taken as p<0.05.
Results: For female athletes, a positive relation was determined between the agility and the perimeter (mm) used (r=0.727; p<0.01) through the static balance measure double foot and eyes are open. For male athletes, a positive relation was determined between the visual reaction time and the perimeter (mm) used (r=0.725; p<0.01) through the static balance measure dominant foot and eyes are open. For male and female athletes were not found any correlation between reaction time and dynamic balance.
Conclusion: It was determined that audio (ears) and visual (eyes) reaction time was effective on balance. While badminton players are closed eyes, audio sensors are more influence on balance test through measure dominant foot.
