Aim: The purpose of this study was to compare the anthropometric characteristics of young basketball and volleyball players with their performance in terms of strength, flexibility, jumping, agility, balance, and speed.

Methods: The study included 20 female basketball players aged 13 on average and 27 female volleyball players aged 12 on average. The 47 participants in the study were divided into two groups: small and large. Basketball majors (BB)-volleyball majors (VB) and basketball minors (BK)-volleyball minors (VB) were assigned to the teams (VK). The athletes in our study were subjected to anthropometric measurements and performance tests. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Shapiro Wilk normality tests were used on the study's data, and the Independent Sample T-test was used at the =0.05 significance level for pairwise comparisons of the normally distributed data.

Results: When the somatocard is examined, it is discovered that 11 basketball players have mesomorphy-endomorphy, 7 have ectomorphy-endomorphy, and 2 have ectomorphy-mesomorphy body type, whereas 18 volleyball players have ectomorphy-endomorphy, 8 have mesomorphy-endomorphy, and 1 has ectomorphy-mesomorphy body type. seen. When hand grip strength, vertical jump, ball throwing, long jump, balance, sprint, and agility values were compared between small and large groups, there was a significant difference in both groups, but there was no significant difference in flexibility values. There was no significant difference in the asymmetry index values between the athletes in the big category, but there was a significant difference between the athletes in the small category.

Conclusion: Basketball players' body structures were found to be muscular and wide, whereas volleyball players' body structures were thin and long. Basketball players were found to be dominant in skills based on strength, power, balance, speed, and agility. Furthermore, when the limb asymmetries were examined, it was discovered that the athletes had different values, but when the symmetry percentage of both teams was considered, it was discovered that they had normal limb symmetry and were not at risk of injury.

Amaç: Bu çalışmada, genç basketbol ve voleybol sporcularının antropometrik özellikleri ile kuvvet, esneklik, sıçrama, çeviklik, denge ve sürat performanslarının karşılaştırılması amaçlandı.

Yöntem: Araştırmaya yaş ortalaması 13 olan toplam 20 kız basketbolcu ve yaş ortalaması 12 olan toplam 27 kız voleybolcu katıldı. Çalışmaya katılan 47 sporcu küçük ve büyük grup olmak üzere iki gruba ayrıldı. Takımlar basketbol büyükler (BB)-voleybol büyükler (VB) ve basketbol küçükler (BK)-voleybol küçükler (VK) şeklinde değerlendirildi. Çalışmamızda yer alan sporculara antropometrik ölçümler ve performans testleri uygulandı. Çalışmada elde edilen verilere Kolmogorov-Smirnov ve Shapiro Wilk normallik testleri uygulandı ve normal dağıldığı görülen verilerin ikili karşılaştırmalarında p<0,05 anlamlılık düzeyinde Independent Sample t-testi kullanıldı.

Bulgular: Somatokart incelendiğinde basketbol takımında 11 sporcunun mezomorfi-endomorfi, 7 sporcunun ektomorfi-endomorfi, 2 sporcunun ektomorfi-mezomorfi vücut tipine sahip olduğu görülürken, voleybol takımında 18 sporcunun ektomorfi-endomorfi, 8 sporcunun mezomorfi-endomorfi, 1 sporcunun ektomorfi-mezomorfi vücut tipine sahip olduğu görüldü. Küçük ve büyük gruplar arasındaki karşılaştırmalarda iki grupta da el kavrama kuvveti, dikey sıçrama, top fırlatma, uzun atlama, denge, sprint ve çeviklik değerleri arasında anlamlı fark olduğu görülürken, esneklik değerleri arasında anlamlı fark olmadığı görüldü. Asimetri indeksi değerlerinde ise büyük kategorisindeki sporcular arasında anlamlı fark görülmezken, küçük kategorisindeki sporcular arasında anlamlı fark olduğu görüldü.

Sonuç: Basketbolcuların vücut yapısının kaslı ve geniş olduğu, voleybolcuların vücut yapısının ise ince ve uzun olduğu belirlendi. Performans değerlerinde; kuvvete, güce, dengeye, sürate ve çevikliğe dayalı becerilerde basketbolcuların baskın olduğu görüldü. Ayrıca uzuv asimetrilerine bakıldığında sporcuların farklı değerlere sahip olduğu görülse de her iki takımın simetri yüzdesi dikkate aldığında normal uzuv simetrisine sahip oldukları ve yaralanma riski taşımadıkları saptandı.
