J. Anthr. Sport Phys. Educ. 2019, 3(1), 35-39 | DOI: 10.26773/jaspe.190107
Abstract
The aim of this study was to obtain the relevant knowledge about significant differences in some anthropometric characteristics of junior basketball and voleyball players. The sample included 27 male subjects divided into two subsamples. The first subsample included 13 subjects, who train in the junior selection in the Basketball club Vojvodina from Novi Sad, while the other subsample included 14 subjects who train in the junior selection in the Voleyball club Vojvodina, from Novi Sad. The variables sample included 20 anthropometric measures that defined longitudinal and transversal dimensionality of skeleton, volume and mass of the body, and subcutaneous adipose tissue. The results were analysed in a statistical procedure marked as a significance testing of two arithmetic means of the independent samples, a t-test at the level of significant of p<0.05. It was concluded, based on these results, that significant differences do not occur even for one of the 20 measured variables.
