Investigation of reaction time and hand eye coordination in early adolescent female basketball and wrestlers

Öz

This study was conducted to investigate hand-eye coordination and reaction time (visual and auditory) in early adolescence (10-14 years old) female basketball and wrestling players. A total of 18 athletes (9 females from each branch, 9 females from each branch without any health problem or sportive injury) participated in the study in basketball and wrestling branches between the ages of 10-14 years in early adolescence. In the study, The Minnesota Dexterity Test was used for hand-eye coordination performance measurement and Newtest 1000 Instrument was used for visual and auditory reaction time measurements. As a result of statistical analysis, a significant difference was found between the visual reaction times of basketball and wrestling athletes. No significant difference was found between hand-eye coordination and auditory reaction. Hand-eye coordination, visual reaction time and auditory reaction time values of basketball athletes were better than wrestling athletes. In conclusion; physiological and psychological changes in the body are experienced very rapidly during adolescence. In order to be successful in sports, it is important to plan training according to the characteristics of this period and sports branch.
