| Resum: | Improving the physical condition of basketball players across all skill levels remains a relevant topic today. The continuous increase in game speed, coupled with the rising mass and height of athletes, along with their high maneuverability and technical skills, demands a higher level of physical fitness from basketball players. This study assessed the impact of 3x3 basketball training and competition on the physical fitness of young basketball players during the preparatory period of their annual training cycle. Materials and methods. The study involved twenty-four basketball players, aged 15-16 (I-II sports categories), who were part of specialized training groups. To assess the development of physical abilities, the following tests were administered: 20-m sprint from a standing start (s), 3xl0-m shuttle run (s), vertical jump (cm), and YOYO IRT Level 1. During the preparatory period of the annual training cycle, athletes in the experimental group (EG) trained in 3x3 basketball and participated in competitions, including both city and national tournaments. After the first phase of the preparatory period, EG athletes shifted their focus to 5x5 basketball technical and tactical skills. Athletes in the control group (CG) followed a traditional annual training cycle. Statistical analysis was performed using Statistica software. The Shapiro-Wilk test was used to check for normality of the data Descriptive statistics (mean (M), standard deviation (SD), standard error of the mean (m)) were calculated for each dependent variable. The paired samples Students t-test was used to assess the significance of differences in a single variable before and after the experiment assuming normal distribution. The Wilcoxon signed-rank test (T) was used when the data did not meet the normality assumption. The Mann-Whitney U test was used to compare differences between two independent samples in different tests. Results. The results of the "20-meter sprint from a standing start" test showed a significant improvement both in the experimental group (8.2%) and the control group (5.5%) (p<0.05) compared to their pre-experiment results. When comparing the post-experiment test results of the CG and EG, no significant difference was found (p>0.05). The improvement in the test results of the control group was 10.9% and of the experimental group - 10.5%, and was statistically significant (p<0.05) compared to their initial results at the beginning of the study. When comparing the post-experiment test results of the CG and EG, no significant difference was found (p>0.05). Changes in the results of the "Vertical jump" test revealed a more pronounced positive impact of specialized training and 3x3 competitions on the speed-strength abilities of the players. Thus, in the control and experimental groups after the experiment, significant improvements in results were found at 8.5% (p<0.05) and 11.8% (p<0.01), respectively. When comparing the post-experiment test results of the CG and EG, a significant difference was found at the p<0.05 level. A similar trend was found in the change in the results of YOYO IRT Level 1. Conclusions. The positive impact of the use of 3x3 basketball equipment and the participation of athletes in competitions within the framework of the general preparatory stage of the preparatory period of the annual training cycle of classic basketball players on the indicators of their speed-strength abilities and special physical fitness was established. |
