Background. Volleyball is a popular non-contact sport around the globe. Unfortunately, volleyball players often suffer from an ankle sprain and knee and shoulder injuries. Proper techniques, education, and preventive exercises such as adequate warm-ups can reduce the risk of injury. Objectives. This study aimed to investigate and compare the implementation of the Oslo Sports Trauma Research Ce...

This paper analyzes the movement condition of each object in the Volleyball robot competition process, and finds that the core part of volleyball robot simulation system is the movement model of individual object and the model of interaction between objects. If the model selected in the simulation system is good, it will help the efficient operation of the system. This paper mainly studies the ...

A set of 18 test for assessing anthropometric characteristics and 12 tests for assessing motor abilities was used on a sample of 183 young female volleyball players (average age of 13.11 +/- 1.07 years). The main goal of this research was to determine the latent structure of biomotor status, as well as relations of that status to situational efficiency in female volleyball players. Situational ...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to estimate the dominant handgrip strength and its correlations with some hand and arm anthropometric variables in 101 randomly selected Indian inter-university female volleyball players aged 18-25 years (mean age 20.52±1.40) from six Indian universities. METHODS Three anthropometric variables, i.e. height, weight, BMI, two hand anthropometric variables, ...

The purpose of this study was to determine the changes in physical performance after a 6-week skill-based conditioning training program in male competitive volleyball players. Sixteen male volleyball players (mean ± SD: age 22.3 ± 3.7 years, body height 190.7 ± 4.2 cm, and body mass 78.4 ± 4.5 kg) participated in this study. The players were tested for sprinting (5- and 10-m sprint), agility, a...

Purpose. Although maximal heart rate (HRmax) is used widely to assess exercise intensity in training, there are limited data with regards to the validity of age-based prediction equations of HRmax in volleyball players. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to compare the measured-HRmax of two prediction equations (Fox-HRmax = 220 − age and Tanaka-HRmax = 208 − 0.7 × age) in young female ...

The article reveals the peculiarities of students' ability to correct technique performing movement actions in volleyball. In course study, need for highly qualified specialists physical culture and sports insufficient level readiness graduates institutions carry out professional activities were revealed. presents algorithm practical students higher education process correcting motor actions. m...

The Stroop task is the most widely used task for examining executive functioning. A variety of modified Stroop tasks have been created over the years. These tasks use a combination of emotionally charged words and neutral words or Xs. In general, it takes longer to identify the color of the print for emotionally charged words compared to the neutral condition. This finding has been found with s...

OBJECTIVES To evaluate the cost effectiveness of a proprioceptive balance board training programme for the prevention of ankle sprains in volleyball. METHODS A total of 116 volleyball teams participated in this study which was carried out during the 2001-2002 volleyball season. Teams were randomly allotted to an intervention group (66 teams, 628 players) or a control group (52 teams, 494 play...
