Voleybolda Dizlik ve Kol Bandı Kullanımının Motor Performansa Etkisi: Beceriler Çerçevesi Bağlamında Vücudun Korumasından Performansa

Öz

Bu çalışma, okul ligi kategorilerinde mücadele eden kız voleybolcuların dizlik ve kolluk kullanımının fiziksel ve motor performanslarına etkisini araştırmayı amaçlamaktadır. Pretest-posttest deneysel desen kullanılan çalışmada, 133 gönüllü sporcu yer almıştır. Katılımcıların esneklik, denge, dikey sıçrama, hız, çeviklik ve aerobik dayanıklılık gibi motorik performans değerleri, dizlik ve kolluk kullanımı öncesi ve sonrası ölçülmüştür. Elde edilen sonuçlar, dizlik ve kolluk kullanımının özellikle alan becerileri kapsamında değerlendirilen esneklik, denge, hız, çeviklik ve aerobik dayanıklılık gibi motorik performanslarda istatistiksel olarak anlamlı düşüşlere yol açtığını göstermiştir (p <0.05). Bu bulgular, koruyucu ekipmanların sporcuların motorik becerilerini sınırlayabileceğini işaret etmekte olup, sporcuların ekipman seçimi ve kullanımı konusunda bilinçlendirilmesinin önemini vurgulamaktadır. Ayrıca, çalışma kavramsal beceriler çerçevesinde sporcunun oyun ve teknik bilgisi ile ekipman kullanımı arasındaki ilişkinin anlaşılmasına katkı sağlamakta ve ergonomik tasarımların geliştirilmesine ışık tutmaktadır. Bu yönüyle çalışma, voleybolda kullanılan dizlik ve kollukların performans üzerindeki etkilerini daha iyi anlamak ve sporcu gelişimine bütüncül yaklaşım sunmak açısından önem taşımaktadır.

The Effect of Knee Brace and Armband Use on Motoric Performance in Volleyball: From Body Protection to Performance in the Context of the Skills Framework

Öz

This study aims to investigate the effects of knee pad and arm sleeve use on the motor performance of female volleyball players competing in school league categories. The study employed a pretest-posttest experimental design and included 133 voluntary athletes. Participants’ motor performance values, such as flexibility, balance, vertical jump, speed, agility, and aerobic endurance, were measured before and after the use of knee pads and arm sleeves. The results showed that the use of knee pads and arm sleeves led to statistically significant decreases in motor performance variables, particularly those evaluated within the scope of field skills (p < 0.05), including flexibility, balance, speed, agility, and aerobic endurance. These findings suggest that protective equipment may limit athletes' motor skills and highlight the importance of raising awareness regarding equipment selection and usage among athletes. Furthermore, the study contributes to understanding the relationship between the athlete’s game and technical knowledge and equipment use within the framework of conceptual skills and sheds light on the development of ergonomic designs. In this regard, the study is important for better understanding the impact of knee pads and arm sleeves used in volleyball on performance and for offering a holistic approach to athlete development.
